#Beloved—week2

1. Baby Suggs lost all her children to slavery and that deprived her of her identity, so she wanted to assert her independence by keeping a name she knew as her know instead of the name Garners had for her.

2. Amy Denver also served as a symbol of freedom to Sethe

3. Before Paul D moved in with Sethe and Dever, they were isolated in the community, therefore Dever was afraid of the world outside 124. At the carnival, the way people saw Denver and her ‘family’ turned softer and warmer, which made Denver think that Paul D was not that bad at all.

4. Threatened-grateful-threatened ( Paul was not very nice to Beloved)
