Native Son pg 30 to 53

Quote: "Poor white people were stupid. It was the rich white people who were smart and knew how to treat people"(34).

Significance: I think this quote is significant because before Bigger did not like white people because they all had more then he had. Now he labels them as the poor and the rich white people. He thinks that the rich white people know how to treat others, but i think that something is going to happen and those rich white people are not going to treat him so nicely. I also do not think that, in this book, there is a difference from poor and rich white people because they are all going to treat the black people wrongly even if they are smarter then some other white people.

Question: Will Mary and Bigger's relationship become something it should not?
