Pg. 49 “What make her keep her head tied up lak some old ‘oman round de store? Nobody couldn’t git me tuh tie no rag on mah head if Ah had hair lak dat.”
Joe treats her like an old woman. She works in the store because he tells her too, but because she’s in the store she has to wear a rag around her head to hide her hair so no men try to approach her. He has to control what she does to benefit him and prevent him from getting jealous. He’s selfish.
This is an understatement.
