  6. What i really read and understood from this summary was that TJs brothers was very depressed and sad he was crying over TJ because of his death penalty what i never understood was that why wouldnt they want to give Tj another appeal?
    Another thing that happened was that TJs brother was not attending school.

  8. Dis Columbian, 'back in the day', it seems that one appeal was all they were given. Especially when they just really WANTED to find the person guilty anyways!

  16. Dynamite was a bull and i guess they were popular on farms because papa wanted to sell it.

  17. Im glad Papa stopped Jacey from talking to Stuart because it sucked that white guys didn't respect black women but just wanted to use them.
