Janie Blog

Janie Crawford is a very young and pretty woman of mixed white and black heritage. Janie is the result of a poor, black girl being raped by an unnamed school teacher, and being raised by her tough old grandmother whose views were shaped by the tramative Civil War. Her sensuality and attractiveness makes her a target for men of all ages. Because of this, she experiences three different marriages, which all teach her three different aspects of love. From Logan Killicks she learns about marriage, from her relationship with Joe Starks she learns about integrity, and from Tea Cake, she learns about love but most importantly about happiness. I can learn so much from Janie Crawford. she taught me that life is full of challenges and learning experiences and everybody is going to go through tough situations in life, but those situations that we go through only makes us stronger and better people.
