Prompt #6 (Multiple Chapters)

"The boys and girls live in separate worlds.  The boys in their universe and we in ours.  My brothers for example.  They've got plenty to say to me and Nenny inside the house.  But outside they can't be seen talking to girls."  This was a quote in the vignette titled Boys and Girls.  I chose this quote to help me create a prediction that the separation of boys and girls and the role of females in the society would be an ongoing occurrence.  I am going to predict that throughout these vignettes Esperanza keeps bringing up how the role of women are not equal to the role of men and how she feels they are less dominant.  Even though this book is not a novel and in each vignette new characters are introduced and new scenes are written about, I think this theme will be an underlying key to how characters interact and how Esperanza relates to the people around her.  This here is a video with hispanic art and words from the book.  Some of the quotes in this clip express some of my predictions about the role of women.
