The Help Questions The main character of my book was Aibileen Clark, a black maid working for a white family in 1960s Jackson, Mississippi, and she was a dynamic character. Throughout the story, Aibileen was trying to get over the recent passing of her son, Treelore, and she was wary of her boss, Elizabeth, and the other white women in Jackson. The treatment of the help is poor, and they do not have a say in the community. This all changes when Skeeter, a recent college graduate, comes to…

The Help (2011) Similarly, in 2011, The Help, was released, starring Emma Stone, Octavia Spencer and Viola Davis. The film is about a young white woman, Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, and her relationship with two black maids, Aibileen Clark (Viola Davis) and Minny Jackson (Octavia Spencer), during the Civil Rights era in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi. Skeeter is a journalist decides to write a book from the point of view of the maids (referred to as "the help"), exposing the racism they are faced with…

I love Gabbi like a sister. Honestly. But we are like sisters. We fight, about stupid stuff like who said what and if they said it or not. But after the fight Gabbi will walk away and maybe tell my step mom maybe my brother aka her boy friend (i'll write something about that.) But we've always gotten past it, not exactly over it but past it. But it's like all we ever do is fight. People have told me, people including my counselor, that we should break off the friendship but i know that that is…

The Help, by Kathryn Stockett, recapitulated the very different lives of black and white people in a small southern community in the 1960s. The story is significantly influenced by deaths during a period of inequality. In particular, the deaths of two men had major impacts on the black maids in this community and led them to join other maids, Aibileen and Minny, in contributing to Skeeter’s book. One of the deaths was that of Treelore who died well before the idea of the book, nevertheless, his…

In the academic library that I chose to examine, finding the reference desk is no easy task for the unfamiliar patron. With three major entrances and six floors to navigate, this library is an epitome of what most libraries would strive to have: boundless space for patrons and a vast, growing collection. The patron, however, could easily take one glance at this gargantuan building and easily become overwhelmed, despite the services that this one building contains, such as being combined with…

take off his headphones and put his cellphone away, which happened to be during a quiz. The assistant principal ended up being called and he was removed from the room. This is isn’t really how I would have handled it personally. I asked my teacher for help when he was not responding to me hoping she would talk to him because she has a better rapport with the student. However, she called the AP and he was removed from the class over a cell phone issue. My teacher had said something about he…

part of the society and help to further impact my community and nation alongside fellow members. To be selected as a candidate I know I must have admirable grades, after all impressive grades equal acceptances to impressive universities. So I strive for…

about plants and animals and genetics and ecology, really inspired me to look at the world in a new light. Not only could I work to serve and help others, but I could promote the importance of responsible fishing to ensure renewable resources for future generations, or I could help discover cures to disease people have been struggling with for years, or I could help a two-legged dog walk happily again and be reunited with a loving…

Celebrate Recovery started in 2006, in 2013 I saw a notice that they needed help watching children and I felt called to help. I also wanted some babysitting experience. I felt it was important because the notice was up for several months and they really needed assistance, so I began volunteering. Some nights, Celebrate Recovery requires a lot of effort. Helping kids stop crying takes a lot of patience. For some children it is their first time be separated from their mom and they throw a tantrum…
