Blogo quatro

For my blog today I will be talking about how defensive Crooks was about his room. Crooks is an African-American stable buck working on the ranch. From my knowledge Crooks doesn't have much respect for anybody but Slim until he meets Lennie. When we finally meet Crooks in person in the book Steinbeck shows us how small his room is and how tidy it is. I think Crooks is so protective over his room because African-Americans at that time didn't have many rights and anything to show for it. Crook's room is one way to show people he has rights to. When Lennie walked into Crooks, Crooks turned and snapped at him "You got no right to come in my room. This here's my room. Nobody got any right in here but me"(68). From this quote you can tell how Crooks will obey any rights he has to follow, but in return you have to respect his.
