Furo undergoes a transformation in the novel Blackass. The document asks what Furo transformed out of and into, questioning whether he became a white man or something else, even other than human. It prompts critical thinking on what Furo was before and after his transformation, and to provide evidence from the text to support the claim.

1. Consider Furo's transformation in A. Igoni Barrett's novel,
Blackass. What did Furo transform out of (what was he?)? What
did he transform into (what did he become?)? Did he transform
into a white man? Or did he transform into something else? Did
he perhaps transform into something other than human? Think
critically before responding, and provide evidence from the text
to support your claim, and try to answer the questions: What
was Furo prior to his transformation? What did he become after
his transformation?
