"Another Perspective of Everyday Use" by Kristen Zolnierzak

Narrator: (Dee is frustrated at Mama and Maggie for not giving the quilts she wanted.)
Dee: I'm so angry that Maggie gets the quits from my heritage!!
Hakeem-A-Baber: Well Maggie deserves the quilts because she is getting married.
Dee: Still, it would have been more valuable for me, since I have more memories with my grandparents.
Hakeem-A-Baber: Just because you've had interest in heritage, doesn't mean you should have the quilts. Maggie deserves something that makes her feel important, since she doesn't get anything.
Narrator: (Dee leaves the room upset and angry.)

  1. I really like this Kristen! It is short but gets right to the point. I love how Hakim-a-barber tells Dee that just because she is suddenly interested in her heritage, that Maggie deserves the quilts less.
