Whereas Maya and her sister were left in the hostel and she grew up on her own. Even when she went home for vacation rarely she got to spend time with her mother as she was working. Mother always said that she had to work hard as they had none to support them. Maya was not very close to her sister who was 7 years younger than her.

  • Case Study: Reyna Grande

    1560 Words  | 4 Pages

    Initially Reyna Grande and her siblings Carlos and Mago were left behind while her parent immigrated to the United States to work. During that time Grande faced many struggles among the most prevalent were her feelings of abandonment, the neglect she and her siblings faced at the hands of their paternal grandmother, and the ostracization. Reyna was left behind when she was a baby by her father and had no concrete recollection of him and her mother left when she was four. Until that point Reyna’s mother had been the only parental figure she had known. The abandonment didn’t stop at the physical absence of her mother, but also at the emotional unavailability of her mother when she finally did return. In the absence of their mother the Grande children were to be cared for by their paternal grandmother Evila who was largely hostile and neglectful. Though their grandmother provided them with housing and at least some nourishment she was in no way emotionally supportive or loving toward them often blatantly displaying her preference for their cousin Elida prominently as if to reiterate the favoritism. The children were often ostracized amongst their peers due to their status as “orphans”. In opposition to their cousin who, although in the same predicament she was seen as

It was not until she went to live with her mother that she really put action behind her feelings.

  • Real Women Have Curves Summary

    All young adults of Ana's age are at a crossroads, but for youth of color and low income, the choices are more limited and difficult than for the more privileged, like most of Ana's Beverly Hills classmates. The pressure is on the former to do what it takes to help their families financially. I felt this way at age 14. I wanted to quit high school to work in the fields, but my mother taught me a lesson. She made me work 10 hours a day except Sundays all summer, and by fall I begged to go back to school. She knew I would live a farmworker's life of poverty if I did not get an education. By contrast, Ana's mama strongly discourages her from applying for college, even dismissing her teacher when he comes to visit. Her mama can only envision the old Mexican traditional role of wageworker and housewife for her daughter, and constantly demeans her for her weight. Ana's self-esteem is strong, however, and she believes that she has value even if her amply curvaceous figure won't fit into the dresses that she, her mother and coworkers sweat to make in the sweltering, dimly lit garment factory. Her father, sister and grandfather provide the encouragement she lacks from her mama — who is also real-sized, and does suffer from a lack of

  • What Does Maya Angelou Symbolize

    988 Words  | 2 Pages

    For Maya’s entire life, she had faced racism and had to deal with it. When Maya decided to get a job, she was determined to overcome anything in her way, even if it meant lying about her age on her resume. She used the oppression as fuel to the fire to encourage her to continue on and fight for what she desired. During a conversation with Mother, Maya said that Mother knew, “That I was no glory seeker was obvious to her, and that I had to exhaust every possibility before giving in was also clear.”(Angelou 268). Throughout the chapter Maya talked about times when Mother dished out aphorisms any time Maya needed to be encouraged or uplifted. Mother once said “God helps those who help themselves.” (Angelou 269). Her own words also prove that Maya was committed to reaching her goals and she pursued the job for the next three weeks with “a honeycomb of determination.” (Angelou 268). Maya Angelou’s tone of determination comes through in her words, her actions, and her ability to separate who she is from the labels that society puts on her.
