This chapter had me thinking on why Jefferson didn't escape the crime scene. I feel very sad about Jefferson. I want to on w the things that Grant will teach Jefferson before he dies.
I got very emotional when Grant was teaching the kids. Grant wanted to teach them to not end up like Jefferson, but I think he is teaching them in a hard way. I understand that he is trying to help them, but beating and pressuring them is not going to help them really understand. Grant should have apologized to Jefferson's cousin. Im anxious to know what Henri Pichot wants to talk to Grant about.
This chapter talks about Grant and when he was in school with an old friend of his named Antoine. I really see how race really effect how they were living back then. As I learn that Grant and Antoine become aware how far African Americans get with education, it never ends. Thid makes me feel bad for the black community back then but also amazing to see that they want to make a change.
I feel that Jefferson shouldn't be acting the way he does, such as pretending to be a hog. Him pretending to be a hog makes him look very immature. Him thinking this is not making him feel like a man. He hopes that Grant will leave him alone.
