"The Lesson" by Toni Cade Bamara
What are Sylvia’s outstanding traits? How are they reflected in her language and in her description of her neighborhood?
- Bamara does not explain any of Sylvia’s traits or anything personal about her. From her language and description of her neighborhood I can assume that she lives in the ghetto, is not well mannered and is under educated. “ And we kinda hated her too, hated the way we did the winos who cluttered up our parks and pissed on our handball walls and stank up our hallways and stairs” (Bambara 136).

Why did the family have to leave the flat on Loomis Street so fast?
- The family had to leave there house on Loomis Street so quickly because their pipes busted and the house was so old the landlord refused to fix them. “ We had to leave fast. We were using the washroom next door and carrying water over in empty milk gallons” (Cisneros 147).
