Another Perspective of everyday use by Jacob Burke

Narrator: Dee bursts into the room in a rage of fury.

Dee: Why does Maggie get the quilts! I know way more about our heritage and they actually have sentimental meaning to me.

Hakeem-A-Barber: Maggie needs the quilts more. The quilts may be a starting point for her to finally understand her ancestors. And besides you already know all about them.

Dee: I just wanted them as a constant reminder of who I am and where my family came from.

Hakeem-A-Barber: You will never forget who you are. Your heritage means so much to you that you will never forget where you came from.

Dee: Mama obviously like Maggie better!

Hakeem-A-Barber: That is non sense! Your mama knows you are more independent than Maggie.
