Read the excerpt from the land.
how does knowing that this story takes place after the civil
war affect the way the reader sees george's threat?
george shoved past hammond and pointed his finger right in
mitchell's face. "you try that on me again and i'll have your
head, boy! you hear me? "
it makes the threat seem illogical because, since slavery
has ended, george and mitchell are considered equals.
it makes the threat seem more angry because, with the
end of slavery, george has fewer rights than mitchell.
it makes the threat seem silly because slavery has
ended, so mitchell has the right to fight george if he wants
to.
it makes the threat more serious because, although
slavery has ended, george has more rights than mitchell
does.
