Buchanan‚ John M. "Shared meal." The Christian Century 130‚ no. 20 (October 2‚ 2013): 3. John Buchanan presents his thoughts on the concept of “Shared Meal” by citing the “World Communion Sunday” as a concrete manifestation of various faith denominations to celebrate the Last Supper of Jesus with His disciples. While there is a complete truth that all should be welcomed at the Lord’s Table‚ Buchanan states as well that there is an exclusion of some people at some churches using the so-called “ecclesiastical

Tom Buchanan was my character of choice because of his interesting role as both a bystander in Jay Gatsby’s relentless pursuit for Daisy and his side story arc with Myrtle. His attitude towards minority groups in the 1920’s reflects the sense of superstition wealthy whites of the time could relate to due to the strong anti-African-American sentiment that they held.
