In search of our Mothers' Gardens written by Alice Ealker.
In the opening Walker states from Jean Toomer that seed that black women were seen as hopeless and treated as objects. Walker says that black women did not have the oppurtunity to pursue their dreams becouse they were given other responsible of raising children, obeing to their housband, and doing the chores of the house. Both Walker and Toomer felt were not allowed to drem or following their dreams. Walker describes her mother simple but with a big talent on garnening. She lover flowers and caried very much for them despite her poor living conditions. Her garden was so brilliant it was a sentence which sad whatever she planted grew up as it by magic. It was a wife with creatifity.
I liked this but it was very painfull becouse describes the suffering that black women has pased.
