I think that the way of thinking of the subject in this piece of writing is presented in a very mature way. Usually when we are made to believe that the person that discovered us , in this case Christophe Columbus, is a great person filled with both religion and integrity, and the reality is always different. In this story I loved the Annie expresses her point of view about Columbus. She marked the words “The Great Man Can No Longer Just Get Up an Go” with such anger and with a certain disrespect that feels almost like she is laughing at him and marking him like they marked her ancestors that were slaves. The fact that she wrote those words in Old English lettering was also wrote to show that she mastered new things and that she is overcoming the oppression that her family felt.
