~What do "secret life of bees" have to do with racisim?
1) The Secret life of the bees has to do with racism because in the book they treat the African americans different than the white people. This book took place in the times where racism wasn't illegal and they would treat the colored people like they weren't worth nothing and would beat them when they were in jail, some would even get killed.
~Can you relate to the story and to her experiences with racism ? What experiences have you had to deal with that are similar to Lily?
2) I can relate to Lily in a way because people are racist till this day its not the way it was before but there is racism in this world still. And i relate to her because i am a young mother and sometimes people think thats wrong and they act wierd and ask questions and they tell me im dumb for having a baby so young but i love my baby, and thats how i can relate to her story .
