The people in the town are beginning to resent him. https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271022 https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271022 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:35:26 -0500 The spittoons symbolize the disparity between the Starks and the rest of the town. https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271021 https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271021 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:35:26 -0500 We once again see the sun and God motifs here in this speech. The idea of the light spreading literally and figuratively to the black people in this town is a wonder to behold, but Joe painting himself as the "savior" makes it feel less so. https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271005 https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271005 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:35:26 -0500 How do you know, Joe? Have you ever asked Janie what she thinks about making a speech? Joe's immediate dismissal of Janie - in front of the entire town - is infuriating to witness. https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271004 https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3271004 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:35:26 -0500 The use of polysyndeton (the repetition of "and" before each item - face, clothes, wife) intensifies the scrutiny and attention given to each aspect of Joe. https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3270989 https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3270989 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:35:25 -0500 I have a mixed reaction to this sentence. It *seems* as if Joe is moving from words to actions, which would be a positive development, but there seems to be a hint of sadness behind it. https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3270986 https://nowcomment.com/documents/368827?scroll_to=3270986 Thu, 27 Feb 2025 11:35:25 -0500
