Tremaine Jackson: A Fictional Narrative

She isn’t the same innocent girl as she used to be. The quotes on page 96 and 129 show that she isn’t innocent anymore.“How long did I stand there listening? Hearing the small sounds, then a sudden gasp, and the needle scratching as the record went round and round, and I couldn’t breathe, my body rigid, my lungs burning, and at the moment of panic, heart thudding, my breath returned, and I listened and heard nothing now.”(96) “All I said to my parents was that I didn’t want to live in Frenchtown anymore.” (129) These quotes reveal how sad and broken someone can be after something

The low point of the story occurs when Jackson goes to a bar and buys everyone there shots of whiskey with the money he won from the scratch off ticket; he doesn’t know the people at the bar but says that “Indians like to belong, so we all pretended to be cousins” (Alexie). It is at this moment that Jackson hits bottom and it appears that he is not going to complete his quest. He is now at the stage of the Hero’s Journey where he “must survive a succession of trials” (Campbell 81) and “undertake for himself the perilous journey into the darkness by descending intentionally or unintentionally, into the crooked lanes of his own spiritual labyrinth” (84). It seems almost as if Jackson cannot control himself, is he a victim of circumstance or

His sister also died of typhoid fever when she was six. His mother died during childbirth. She gave birth to Laura the day after her husband died.

Do you think Curley’s wife is misunderstood? I believe she is very misunderstood. Not only did she have to deal with a horrible husband. But, she also had to deal with being chained like a dog. She wanted someone to understand her and her reasoning behind the things she did.

An hour later four trucks and one truck with an M-60 mounted in the bed drove into town. Raising his hand, Jackson signaled his men to hold fire until they had the vehicles between them as he pulled his left arm out of the sling before wrapping it around the rifle sling and taking careful aim. Firing his first shot, Jackson took out the right front tire of the truck with the M-60 with his second round taking out the back right tire, effectively stopping the truck in the middle of the road. After those shots, his men followed suit, flattening the tires on the rest of the trucks with their well-placed rounds. Under fire with immobile vehicles, the militiamen quickly dove out of their vehicles and tried to return fire at their unseen enemy on the rooftops.

Sometimes the biggest tragedy in someone's life is loosing a loved one. The tragedy of this event can be amplified if you're last words are bad or if there is something you forgot to tell them or meant to tell them. There are many book's that are write about this theme, for example In the book "Shoeless Joe Jackson" by W.P. Kinsella, the main character Ray Kinsella is trying desperately to reconnect with his dead father and is willing to put his reputation and financial security at risk for the opportunity to reconnect with his father as well as put his sanity up for question.

Many people argue that Jackson was an evil individual or a villain only because of his removal of the natives. While I do believe that his actions towards the natives was very bad and if anyone wanted an example of how bad Jackson was they could easily turn to this issue. However, I do not believe that just because of his removal of the natives that we should automatically consider him a villain without looking at other bad and good things he did as well. Making this argument fails to stand because unfortunately for the natives, their removal from their home land during that time was inevitable, and if Jackson did not do it some president soon after him more than likely would have. While this it troubling to think about now it was not something

While watching Ms. Jackson's interaction with her children and listening to her express the begin of the day with her 5:30 AM devotion, it is obvious Ms. Jackson acknowledged her calling to become a foster parent 22 years ago. Calling signifies more than a 9-5 job; it is an energy that epitomizes her identity as a humble woman. It is an obligation that keeps her occupied throughout the day and even active during the evening when experts give their professional care to the children. Amazingly, Ms. Jackson said, "I received an infant, and I plan to realize what's wrong." In my conclusion, that is a powerful proclamation.
