~The Character Crooks~

Crooks was the character we chose because he stood out to us. We noticed something good about him. Crooks was the only black, loved to read, also stayed to hisself. Even when other's didnt want him around he stayed strong, and kept his head up high. We also didnt like the way he was being treated so that encouraged us to choose hin as well. Crooks also is a brave man, because he's living in a house being disrespected everyday and being the only black and still living there thats courage.

~Crooks Pain~



Crooks is sweet But others think he's a creep
he's all alone living in a broken home
so much pain running through his vains
but what ever he do nothings going to change.

The reason why We chose this picture was because this is how crooks look well i think he look like crooks.

Human Despair

Crooks' face lighting with pleasure in his torture. "Nobody can't tell what a guy'll do," he observed calmly. "Le's say he wants to come back and can't. S'pose he gets killed or hurt so he can't come back."

The reason why i chose this quote was because Human despair is when you never think on the good side and as you see crooks always thinking on the negative side.

Man vs Man

Crooks said, "I ain't wanted in the bunk house, and you ain't wanted in my room." "Cause i'm black. They play cards in there, but I can't play because i'm black."

The reason why I say this is man vs man because crooks is always by hisself and man vs man is an issue with somebody that has probelms with their self.

Proverty

Crooks said gently, "Maybe you can see now. You got Gerorge. You know he's goin' to come back. S'pose you didnt have nobody. S'pose you didnt have nobody."

The reason why proverty is realted to this quote because he always talking about bein lonley and he has nobody by his side proverty define what crooks is going through in this quote.

3 quotes from my character

Anger-"Well, I got a right to have a light. You go on get outa my room. I ain't wanted in the bunk house, and you aint wanted in my room."

Unhappy-"Cause i'm black. They play cards in there, but i can't play because i'm black. Well, I tell you, you all of you stink to me."

Lonely-" I didn't mean to scare you. He'll come back. I was talkin' about myself. A guy sets alone out here at night, maybe readin' books or thinkin' or stuff like that. Sometimes he gets thinkin', an' he got nothing to tell him what's so an' what ain't so.

Crooks Diary


Im so lonely in this place, im the only black and get treated unfair. I have no friends, no one wants me around, or wants to talk to me. So I sit in my room all alone and read all day to forget about the ways that im being treated here. Im a nice person when you get to know me but no one even wants me around so how can they know the real me.
