Another perspective of Everyday Use by Amber Leech

Dee-(entering the car full of frustration) Ugh! Mama really doesnt understand!
Hakeem-A-Barber-Understand what?
Dee-(Stares angrily )That i deserve the quilts! Not maggie!
Hakeem-A-Barber-Your Mama did promise Maggie. She just doesn't want to break her promise. Its really no big deal.
Dee-No! It is a big deal. Maggie is dumb! She doesn't understand the significants of those quilts. I know much more about our heritage then she does.
Hakeem-A-Barber- I understand why your upset. Maybe you should call your Mama and talk to her about it and explain to her why your upset.
Dee-(without any hesitation)No. I dont want to talk to her. I have nothing to say to her.
Hakeem-A-Barber(sigh) Well I agree with Mama. Maggie is getting married. She deserves them.
