In alice walker's "everyday use," what does dee mean when she says, "maggie can't appreciate these quilts! she'd probably be backward enough to put them to everyday use."?
1) i never had an education myself. after second grade the school was closed down. don't ask my why: in 1927 colored asked fewer questions than they do now. sometimes maggie reads to me. she stumbles along good-naturedly but can't see well. she knows she is not bright. like good looks and money, quickness passes her by.
2) when she was courting jimmy t she didn't have much time to pay to us, but turned all her faultfinding power on him. he flew to marry a cheap city girl from a family of ignorant flashy people. she hardly had time to recompose herself.
3) it is hard to see them clearly through the strong sun. but even the first glimpse of leg out of the car tells me it is dee. her feet were always neat-looking, as if god himself had shaped them with a certain style. from the other side of the car comes a short, stocky man.
4) dee next. a dress down to the ground, in this hot weather. a dress so loud it hurts my eyes. there are yellows and oranges enough to throw back the light of the sun. i feel my whole face warming from the heat waves it throws out. earrings gold, too, and hanging down to her shoulders. bracelets dangling and making noises when she moves her arm up to shake the folds of the dress out of her armpits.
5) we sat down to eat and right away he said he didn't eat collards and pork was unclean. wangero, though, went on through the chitins and corn bread, the greens and everything else. she talked a blue streak over the sweet potatoes. everything delighted her.
