Prior to graduation, what is the mood of the graduating class and their families? How does that mood change and why?

1.    Prior to graduation, what is the mood of the graduating class and their families? How does that mood change and why?

Proir  to graduation everyone was excited and happy for for. Parents were  proud of their child and the young adults were excited to start a new  chapter in their lives. Then when Donleavy gave his speech, it changed the whole mood.He  wasn’t really supporting them to work harder, he was telling them the  reality of their place in society. The only careers really fit for them  were being farmers, maids, and field workers. Mr. Donleavy was basically  crushing their dreams on a special day for the students. He was making  sure they didn’t put their hopes so high because of the way society was  at that time.

Example answer:  I agree Justin as Mr. Donleavy gave his backhanded speech this was the  main change of attitude for Marguerite and created a vortex of self  doubt that as a black person in that time and before had all felt.

2.  What  is the effect of Mr. Donleavy’s appearance and speech at the  graduation? Explain Marguerite’s changed attitude towards herself and  others change because of Donleavy.

Mr.  Donleavy’s appearance and speech at the graduation had a negative  impact on the students.  His pompous, nonchalant attitude reflected the  fact that he did not feel the education or the student’s hard work would  be of consequence to their future.  As far as he and the other racist  white people were concerned, the Negroes would never amount to anything  more than athletes, maids, handymen, farmers, etc.  This changed  Marguerite’s attitude  towards herself and others because she initially believed she could do  anything as long as she put her mind to it. Once gave his speech to the  graduating class, the mood was somber and she said, “Donleavy had  exposed us.” (¶. 44) Despite earlier receiving the recognition for her  hard work from her family and the community, it now felt like she didn’t  accomplish anything at all.

Example Answer:  I strongly agree with your response, His speech wasn’t uplifting at all, he gave them no sense of hope. 

2nd example:   It was obvious that the graduation was something that Marguerite was  excited about however the content of Mr. Donleavy’s speech showcased his  racism , which to the graduating class seemed  discouraging and  disrespectful.

  2. List all indicators (including stated “problems”) that something is not as expected or as desired.
  3. Briefly analyze the issue with theories found in your textbook or other academic materials. Decide which ideas, models, and theories seem useful. Apply these conceptual tools to the situation. As new information is revealed, cycle back to sub steps a and b.
  4. Identify the areas that need improvement (use theories from your textbook)

Roughly 10-years have passed since The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks was published.
