everyday thought. Freein’ dat mule makes uh mighty big man outa you. Something like George Washington and Lincoln. Abraham Lincoln, he had de whole United States tuh rule so he freed de Negroes (Hurston, 58). Her comparisons of her husband to Abraham Lincoln suggest that the mule would represent the African American slaves of the United States, further enhancing the meaningfulness of the mule as a motif. This comparison is clear even later in the story when the mule is freed, it is treated nicely by the entire town for a while, until a townsperson finds him dead, "under the big tree on his rawbony back with all four feet up in the air" (Hurston, 59). Whereafter it is dragged out of the town and fed to the vultures while the rest of the town parties (Hurston, 61-62).

Not only does Hurston use the mule to represent slavery, but also to help show Joe’s shallow love for Janie.

This moment in the story is crucial, because it is a turning point in Janie’s life, and is ultimately one of the reasons why she decides to no longer believe in her relationship with Joe. Overall, Hurston’s…

they have offered a more unified method. The local authority services provide help and support for families as they have a responsibility for the care of children and young people.

This approach is beneficial towards young people because it employs a unique methodology in seeking to address issues regarding human behaviour and development, by considering how social relations and environmental context shape an individual.
