A Lesson Before Dying

Day 6


Based on chapter 7, Mr. Johnson seems to be a very careless person. He isn't right for getting Grant's last name wrong on purpose, Grant was being respectful towards him so he should at least show an ounce of kindness and respect. Mr. Johnson is a cruel person, especially when he suggested to grant that the students can go buy their own school supplies and when he also suggested that they should "stop being lazy" and gather pecans and sell them to buy their own toothbrushes and other items. This shows that back then, no black person, no matter your age, was treated less than nothing in the 1900's.
