marginalized in some way.
 Explain how the character is

productive or unproductive and
why.

being marginalized; AND/OR 2) ways in which the character responds to the marginalization that you
see as productive or unproductive and why.
Body paragraph 3: Extend your insights to contemporary society; how does this character’s
marginalization compare to others you see who are also marginalized?
