Bronx Perspectives: Take 1
The book Bronx Masquerade by Nikki Grimes is about a group of teenagers that are all facing different struggles. Their teacher Mr. Ward introduced something called "open mic Fridays" where they all share a poem on Friday. The main character/narrator of this book is a character named Tyrone.
The first characters I will be talking about are Gloria and Lupe. I think Gloria and Lupe are similar in some ways. Gloria is a mother but on the other hand Lupe wants to be a mother. I think they're similar in which that they are both related to motherhood. I think Gloria will soon tell Lupe that she does not need a baby to maker her happy and that there are other people that love her.
I think Devon And Tyrone are different people. Tyrone doesn't like school and he only goes to school because Wesley encourages him. On the other hand Devon really wants to be successful but he just can't because he is afraid of showing the real him and showing his true colors. He also does not like basketball.
