 On Monday, I read the story Rockpile and began brainstorming the quotes I thought would best fit my group assignment. I continuously saw how the author James Baldwin constantly did things to make me as the reader earth feel the story or use my imagination to see scenes in the story. This story is also full of lessons and accurate real-world obstacles. For example, Roy's father told him not to mess around at the rockpile but he did anyway in rebellion which is similar to today's generation, and ended up getting hurt.
