IOP Journal #2
I started my Powerpoint today and also I analyzed my quotes. It was actually really hard for me to extend what I was saying about my quotes. I knew what I was going to say and analyze but I couldn't make it longer and I need to figure out what I am going to do. I also looked up more about feminism and about Zora Neale Hurston and her connection to feminism. I learned that she was in a really male dominated place in the harlem renesance. It must have been hard for her to express her feelings for that so I think that she did it through her books and expressed her opinions through that and I think that she subtly does it in her book their eyes were watching god. I also looked at Logan Killicks and found that he is kind of controlling and just expects Janie to do the typical women things and jobs. But he also expected her to do a lot of man things as well like farming. For Jodie I kinda of figured out that he was very controlling and also expected Janie to do a lot of womenly things. This isn't how Zora Neale Hurston wanted women to be treated and she shows this through those two men. I think that she uses Tea Cake as an example of how a women should be treated and she's happy when she is with him so he is a good example.
