Dear Journal,
Today i found out my brother lost all of the money left from the insurance check. 6,500 dollars gone. All my collge money gone. And for what ? To invest in some non-existant liquor store. He trusted some guy with our family's money and he ran off with it. What a selfish thing to do. And he never consulted none of us, not mama not no one. Im so angry at him. What an irresponsible thing to do. And he was always bugging me about my college classes being a waste, but his dreams were the ones that were a waste. How am i supposed to get through college now ? I could have been a doctor, i could have helped people. But no, my stupid brother has lost it all. What will happen now ? i dont know.

i like how you made it seem like Beneatha was really talkin. you described how she was feeling very well.
ReplyDeleteYou really made it seem like beneatha was talking about her life, also I like the point you made about his dreams being a waste not hers.
ReplyDeleteI like this! I think you really got the point across and I agree with the way you interpreted it.
