Arab guy named Hakim-a-barber. In a way I see how Dee/ Wangero Leewanika Kemanjo and Beneatha from “A Raisin in the Sun” are similar.

The thing with Dee that has drawn interest to me is that she that she feels like she subjugated by her people because of her name‚ ergo her changing it to Wangero. In a scene Wangero tells Mama of this by saying‚ “I couldn’t bear it any longer being named

In the text ‘I am not Esther’ written by Fleur Beale a character I liked was Kirby Greenland. I liked Kirby because she taught me about the themes of loyalty‚ deception and a sense of your own identity. I liked Kirby because she had experiences a lot of changes in her life. The most significant change was finding her own identity as she grew and developed as a teenager. She was always determined to find her mother even when it felt like there was a brick wall at the end of the road. I also liked Kirby
