The daughter of Marie is Rhonda Larabee, who is now the Chief of the Qayqayt, but her title didn’t come without a struggle. Rhonda was raised in Chinatown born into the Lee family thinking she was Chinese. Growing up in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, British Columbia it didn’t matter what your ethnicity was. [cite] But when Rhonda got older, she realized she was different from the other Asian families.

Rhonda finally asked her mother to fill in the blanks. After years of not acknowledging her Aboriginal ancestry, Marie finally agreed to tell Rhonda about her past.

A reader of The Last of the Mohicans is able to notice the manifested racism in the book which is perpetuated through the cultural divide and racial stereotypes. Racism from Cooper’s book depicts itself in being one of the contemporary themes in the novel which offers derogatory and stereotypical concerns to people of various races. In a more stringent analysis, the racial stereotypic statements from the book drive racial and cultural tolerance along with the societal inequalities which are set forth by Cooper. The author does not only use the stereotypes to further the racial barriers but also support and build the plot of the book promoting the idea that people from different racial and cultural upbringing can be divided on racial

The background of the novel is based on the French, and the British army who are fighting against each other and both have Indian allies to assist them.

Of all the characters in the novel, Hawkeye and Magua play an important role, Hawkeye as the hero who saves the day and Magua, as the villain whose appearance brings fear and terror to the reader. The story changes its pattern as soon as Magua appears on the scene and executes his evil ambition and plans.

An idea that arises No Great Mischief[, is MacLeod’s ability to prove to the readers that it is impossible to talk about the Scottish-Canadian heritage without mentioning family history, loyalty and bonds. It is common for an individual to discuss all three factors when discussing family or one’s past in general. However, in No Great Mischief, MacLeod successfully

Nothing worth having comes easy, this statement directly relates to being in a relationship.

Helen Oyeyemi’s novel Boy, Snow, Bird deals with tendentious issues such as abuse, race, beauty, and mother daughter relationships. Many of these issues are blatantly illustrated throughout this story between different characters. Often more than one relationship deals with each of these issues, and most of these relationships deal with more than one issue at a time. That being said, some of the relationships deal with their issues and themes in a much more subtle way than others. One relationship in particular deals with issue very subtly, Charlie and Boy’s. Charlie and Boy grew up together in the same town, and he even asked her to prom, wrote to her, toke her to see fireworks (Oyeyemi 7-9). The two of them formed an unspoken sporadic romance. The relationship between Charlie and Boy acts as a window into the circle of abuse and abandonment, builds a foundation of feigning a position of power, and connects to the theme of beauty.

At the start of the novel Ameera’s relationship isn’t that good with her father because of him being strict towards her about her hijab being taken off of her by two strangers and blames Ameera for it, because she was acting carelessly, this shows that her father doesn’t trust her at all because of a situation.

Their relationship changes numerous times throughout the short story, beginning with two men leading separate lives and being relatively unconcerned with each other, and acting more or less like acquaintances, rather than a father and son. “At that moment I realised he was speaking to me not as a father... but as he would speak to a friend, to anyone, and it undid me” (pp.22). However,

Oodgeroo Noonuccul’s ‘The Last of His Tribe’ challenges the traditional values of society by displaying the loss of tradition and culture through the use of contrast, first person narration and truncated sentences. The poem contrasts and compares the sorrow and melancholy of the loss of the man’s tribe’s past with cultural disposition and the impairment of personal identity. This is presented when the poem says; ‘And think of the gay throng, the happy people,” and later says; “And I feel, the sudden sting of tears, Willie Mackenzie in the Salvation Army home. Displaced person in your own country”. First person narration is used to allow the audience to relate to the emotions of the last man of the tribe. The poem also uses truncated sentences to make the point of dispossession bolder and stronger. This is displayed in the sentences; ”I asked you and you let me hear” and “No more forever. For me.” The poem “Last of His Tribe” uses

This can be seen in the main characters’ actions throughout the story. In Poor Fish, Moravia implements universal actions, “...In the darkness of the cinema, she took my hand slipping her five fingers in between mine” (Moravia),” that are similar to those in the Tall Woman and Her Short Husband, “By hunching up his shoulders he was able to grip her crooked arm in both hands (Ji-cai).” These actions are very similar and display a universal way of affection with interchangeable gender roles in both stories. According to the Whitley Abbey School District, “The writer makes us view the couple from the same distance as their neighbours in the story; we are being invited to judge them on the same amount of information. In this way, the story tests our own bias and prejudice” (Whitley Abbey School District). In addition, we learn more about affection because in spite of all conflict, love remains strong. As stated in the story, “One morning Mrs. Tall had an accident. Her husband rushed frantically out came back with an ambulance to fetch her (Ji-cai).” This shows that there are flaws and bad incidents with the people, yet they still love each other. Whitley Abbey School District describes this as “...a love story, describing a couple who stick together through thick and thin, who society has made outcasts but who have found belonging with each other (Whitley Abbey

In both Chinua Achebe’s Things Fall Apart and Peter Weir’s Dead Poets Society, the nature of father and son relationships are dependant on communication, the level of compromise that each is willing to give, and how each respond to one another. In the novel, Things Fall Apart, the village of Umuofia is a place where men are no less than warriors, and must fight for their social status. In the movie, Dead Poets Society, Welton is a strict school that has set rules that shall be followed, and if disobeyed, the students will face consequences. Both of these communities have a specific way of life, but both sons attempt to challenge society, and live their own way. However, their fathers are believers of their respective rules, and are ashamed

Throughout James Fennimore Cooper’s novel The Last of the Mohicans a common theme of interracial friendship and love and the difficulty it takes to overcome such an obstacle, is shown strongly in the work. In the novel Cooper shows how the America people of European decent treat those that are native, by showing how negatively they treat the Native Americans. Chingachgook and Hawkeye have a friendship that is genuine and deep, bypassing the normal relationship between that of a white man and a Mohican Indian. Interracial love and romantic relationships are condemned in The Last of the Mohicans, for example when, Cora, the older daughter of Munro, is approached

There is distinction between the types of power that are inherent through the children’s separate blood-gender lines. The boy is given a higher status due to being a male, while the girl is relegated to a lower social role because she is female. The young girl’s brother, Laird, becomes the man that is entitled to help his father throughout the story. At the beginning of the story, Laird is a small boy and is not as useful to his father as the young girl is. The mother believes the girl isn’t much help to her father to begin with, as the mother says to the father, “Wait till Laird gets a little bigger, then you’ll have a real help” (329). But, as time goes on in the story, Laird gets older and stronger. For example, when Laird and his older sister were fighting, “and for the first time ever I had to use all my strength against him; even so, he caught and pinned my arm for a moment, really hurting me” (331). Laird is becoming the helpful son that his father needs around the farm, which delegates the young girl to a position of less physical standard to her father. Eventually, the girl realizes that she has to become more like her mother. This realization is shown through the definition, “A girl was not, as I had supposed, simply what I was; it was what I had to
