        <description><![CDATA[The biggest conflict in Chapters 7, 8, and 9 are focused on the boycott by some of the black residents of the area against the Wallaces' store.  Everyone knows that the Wallaces' were the perpetrators in the vicious attack on the Berrys, but nothing is being done to bring them to justice because they are white and the Berrys are black.  In addition to this, the Wallaces are luring black youths in the community to drink and dance at a room...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[T.J. wants Stacey to find out what will be on the tests Mrs. Logan gives ahead of time, and tell him so that he will have an advantage when the tests are actually given.  Essentially, T.J. wants Stacey to help him cheat.
Stacey's Mom is a teacher at the school the children attend.  T.J., who was a grade ahead of Stacey, had Mrs. Logan for a teacher last year, and had failed her class.  Because of this, he has to repeat her class this year,...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[If by "rising" you mean rising action, then rising action would be all the events that take place in the story which build the tension on the way to the climax of the story. For example:

The children who ride the school bus with the Logan children pick on them.


The Logan children devise a plan in which they dig a ditch in the muddy road, and when the bus gets stuck it breaks it axle.


When she goes to Strawberry, Cassie Logan is teated...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[The night riders were white members of the community who went out at night terrorizing African-Americans who also lived in the community. In the story, the night riders were akin to members of the Ku Klux Klan (white supremacists) who wore white hoods and terrorized African-Americans. This group gained power in the southern states of the U.S. after the American Civil War.

        <description><![CDATA[There's not really a moment, per se, that Mary Logan (Mama), "notices" something different about her two children, Cassie (narrator-9 years old) and Stacey (oldest child-12). It's a realization that her children are growing up as the story progresses. This is, after all, a "coming of age" story. And throughout, these two characters demonstrate their coming of age.
We can sense Cassie's maturation through her words and thoughts (as narrator) as...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Uncle Hammer's guiding principles have been forged by his experiences dealing with racism. He is Mary Logan's brother who lives in Chicago. Unlike his southern relatives, Hammer appears as a more "well-to-do" character. He's polished, urbane. He drives a beautiful Packard (almost identical to Logan nemisis, Harlan Granger), wears nice clothes, and carries himself with a certain swagger, born of pride and prejudice. When Hammer hears that his...]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[This is indeed a telling remark. The relationship between Cassie and Lillian Jean is very different from each girl's point of view. Earlier in the story, Cassie is humiliated when she is forced to step off the sidewalk to make room for the white girl, Lillian Jean. Cassie plots her revenge by pretending to be sweet and subservient to Lillian Jean, who is thrilled to have a "little black friend."
When Cassie lures Lillian Jean into the woods...]]></description>
