Application
3. What questions would you ask of Bigger Thomas, if you had the chance to meet him?

If I had the to meet Bigger Thomas I would ask him,
Why did you try to rape Mary Dalton? Also does he think of himself more of a man by killing innocent helpless women.


Analysis
4. The relationship between bigger and his mother is obviously rocky. In the first chapter, she tells himt hat he’s a dissapointment and needs to do something in his life. He ignores her and continues with his regular thought process. What do you see as other possible outcomes of her reasoning?

He could actually get up and listen to her. Do something with his life, if he did he would not have done the evil things he did. He would’ve been able to feel like a man by taking the responsibility that a man owns up to.


Synthesis
5.What would happen if you accidently killed someone?

If I was in Bigger Thomas's place I would set out a very elaborate plan.
I personally would have to think about it.
I’d think about the type of person it was, if they were type of person that would be widely missed or not. If it was someone that nobody would go looking after and I knew that I could get away with then I would probably try and find away to get out of it. I would have to put together an alliby, and get people to cover for me. I would then attempt to dispose of the body and look as if it was a robbery of some sort.
That is what i would do if I was in BIgger Thomas's place. First see if I could get away with it, then set up the perfect alliby with people that would cover for me. I'd then attempt to dispose of the body making it look like another crime had taken place.

Evaluation
6. What do you think of Bigger Thomas as a person, is he a bad person?
He has stolen, killed, lied, and decieved many people.
I personally don't believe that he is a bad person. I think that he's a coward. He's someone that feels he needs to prove himself to others because he doesn't truly know who he is. A prime example of this is the chapter where he and Gus got into an arguement about robbing the white man. Bigger was very arguementive because he deep inside he was afraid. Everyone has fears and have to find themeselves in life. Bigger Thomas has not done such in life.
He's very confused and doesn't what path he wants to complete. One minute he's robbing a person the next he's working an honest job.
So in conclusion. I do not think that Bigger is a bad person. He's just confused, and doesn't know where he belongs in life. He's still going through phases in his life.
