No Sugar Character Analysis
During the reconstructed era my character was beaten by her masters all the time. She visually perceived as a wild child. One time my character optically discerned a bowl filled with lumps of sugar and decided to take one. My characters mistress, Miss. Susan, visually perceived her take it and commenced chasing her with a whip. My character absquatulated and obnubilated out with the pigs. After some time, she had to go back, because she was hungry. When she returned she was whipped perpetually? “She verbally expressed, “Now you ken, I never had anything good, no saccharine, no sugar, and that sugar right by me did look so nice.
By her early teens, this person was no longer sanctioned to work inside, so she was hired out as a field hand. My character wrought profoundly and strenuously hard and long hours out in the fields. There was no subsistence of a reposal for slaves.
At the age of 12, my character sustained an injury that would afflict her for the duration of her life. By holding her ground in a doorway, she shielded a fellow field hand from an irate master, who then hurled a two-pound weight. Missing its intended target, the weight struck my character on her head. She never consummately recuperated from the blow, whose effects subjected her to episodes resembling narcolepsy.

    Aminata’s resiliency is evident in that she “seems to have trouble dying” (1) which compliments her resiliency as she advances throughout her journey of slavery and as an abolitionist. Aminata also stayed resilient even though she “never had the privilege of holding her children” (2). While many would lose their resiliency in tough times, Aminata remained resilient even though she was not with her children. She always remained steadfast that she would overcome through her resiliency even after hearing “You don’t own that baby any more than you own the wool on your head. They both belong to me” (179). She kept steadfast even though she missed her children “the way I’d miss limbs from my body” and the thought of one day being reunited with them. Similar to Aminata’s hardships, Laila also endured the hardships of domestic violence in a war torn…

    In the very beginning, there is a ‘tension building phase’ when there is a gradual intensification of tension which is manifested by obnoxious behaviour on the part of the batterer and which sometimes escalates to minor acts of physical abuse. In order to avoid such situations in future, the woman attempts to pacify her husband by doing what she thinks might please him. However such attempts eventually fail and this invariably gives way to the ‘acute battering phase’. In fear of pain and injury, which she will have to endure during this phase, she often expedites the inevitable explosion, forcing it to occur in conditions so as to minimize the impending harm. The explosion itself is constituted by physical and verbal aggression which leaves the woman injured and shaken.…
