in the 1950 and a boy named tater is deeply discriminated and it takes place in a normal town that has houses and a park but whats no so normal is that there is somewhat a line that divides the black and white community and as you see in the book tater crosses that line quite a few times and the white folks don't like that, but he acts like nothing is happening because while one of his baseball games people were calling him racist names and he ignored them and he fits in perfectly fine and when he was watching one of Angie's swim meets a guy tried to chocked home out and all he said was i'm sorry to Rodney's mom and left and went home.
The setting is in the 1950s and that effects colored people like tader. In witch they get treated badly and called lots of names. Also restricted from some areas that only whites can go into.
Mrs. Scheller 3rd hour The setting of "Call Me by My Name" takes place in the small racially divided city in the state of Louisiana. The story takes place during the 1950-1960s. The two main characters of the story are a white kid named Rodney Boulet and a black star athlete named Tatum Henry also known as Tater. Both of these kids have a couple things in common, they both love to play sports. In fact the two meet at a baseball feild during team try outs. Being black back then was hard for Tatum because he often got called alot of names and was often excluded from many activities. The two end up becoming pretty good friends but they have to keep it a secret because nobody would approve.
Mrs. Scheller 4th Hour "Call Me By My Name" by John Ed Bradley, is set in a city in Louisiana. The city is divided by the North parts and South parts due to racial discrimination. The two main characters are Rodney Boulet, a white boy, and Tatum (Tater) Henry, a black boy. While waiting for tryouts to begin, Curly Trussell had noticed Tater walking towards the field for tryouts. Everyone else on the team, besides Rodney, started to shout things like "Let's get him," and "That's a full-blown colored if I ever saw one," due to Tater being a black person on a white kid field. If I was Tater, and was in the time period of the civil rights movement, I would try to fight the racial discrimination like how Tater is doing.
Mrs.scheller 4th, My book takes place in the year of 1965 when segregation just started to end.it affects my character Rodney because he is white and plays sports and it’s his first time being on the same team as a black person.Rodney doesn't like the way his other teammates treat tatum so he becomes friends with him but he also doesn't want his dad to know.Rodney often thinks about how different his life is from tatum and how it would feel people hated you without even knowing you just because the color of your skin.
I disagree with pops behavior,Mosley his behavior to tader and all the other dark skinned people.I really don't know why pops is acting this way cause all the other people in his family like his wife,daughter,and son are fine with dark skinned people. It might be just how he grew up he just didn't like them or maybe he had a incident with a dark skinned person and just hasn't liked them cause of that.I think maybe pops should just give them a chance.
I agree with you because what he doesn't realize is that the world is changing around him and he needs to realize that so he can become a better person and sooner or later the way he looks at tater will be the same way everyone will look at him if he doesn't learn to stop discriminating.
I don't like the way that tater acted when he was put in the newspaper. He was mad because the fact that they said black football player scores and not tater Henry scores. He has good points though like would it be different if it was a white, Asian, or Indian football player? The thing that I see wrong with it is that he should have been happy that he was in the newspaper in the first place but he is happy just not the fact that they used the terminology that they did. And that where I thought that he could have acted a little different towards it, he could of been like thanks for traveling all this way to deliver this Rodney.
Bri Hennessey 4th Hour I agree with what you said because he did overreact a little over a small thing like that, he basically got upset over a couple words that he should've expected since he lives in a town in the south that still doesn't support the integration system.
i believe they are just because they have so much in commen and its almost like their suposed to be together so yeah i really think they will end up being together.
Bri Hennessey 4th hour Scheller I think they will because they have been getting really close to each other and they just go well with each other. They support each other a lot and in very good ways so they would work out in the end.
I think angie and tater are gonna get together they seem to really like each other and even tho everyone else doesnt want them together they seem like people who dont care what anyone else thinks
will tader ever be QB? also will coach even put him on the field or is the other kid always going to play quarter back. is the coach for the second year going to play favorites or actually going to play the best
I think because the coach already knows and trusts the strating quarterback that hes more likely to take his side which is only going to make Tatum work harder.
Bri Hennessey 4th Hour Scheller I agree with what you said because the coach truly believes that Tater is a good player and is fit for the position, and the coach doesn't see race like everyone else does in the book.
Kyle McCrary 3rd hr Mrs. Schellar In the book "Call me by my name" one of the main characters is a boy named Tater Henry also known as Tatum. Tatum grows up in a pretty racist enviroment which in return makes him kinda defensive in some situations. Tatum feels like everyone in the city dosent like him so hes determined to prove everyone wrong.This pushes Tatum to become starting quarterback and become even better than he already is.
Bri Hennessey 4th hour Scheller In the book,"Call Me By My Name," Tater Henry is an african-american quarterback on his school's football team.Tater went with a girl named Patrice Jolivette, an african-american cheerleader, to prom. At prom, Tater was struck by a white guy and he decided to fight back. I think Tater acted this way out of the built up anger he had from being treated like that all his life. Some things that are wrong with it is the fact that people beat on him just because of his race. He was only responding in the act of self-defense.
Im not tryna be rude, haha. but at the prom that tater went to and did not invite angie, tater was not struck by a white guy. He was struck by his own brother and his brother was the same one who hurt rodneys leg when he was riding his bike, and all though you have good points your facts are wrong.
Bri Hennessey 4th Hour Sorry for not stating my facts correctly, I guess I just didn't understand that scene at the time of reading it. I probably should have re-read it but instead I moved on.
Mrs,sheller 4th hour One character's decisions I don't agree with is rodney's dad’s opinion that tater would not be the star player if it wasn't for rodney.I disagree with that because tater practice on his own and wasn't allowed to play even because he was black,and after the couch realized that he should play he carried the team and made them when,i do think that people wouldn't be as welcoming to tater without rodney i still don't think he would be nothing without him. Leah parker
I agree with you 100% because tter is a good player and has raw talent and he expesses that and people still think that he is not capable of being as good as a player as other kids at the school because of his skin color and i am so happy that that has changed in our time now
i feel the exact same way you feel rodneys dad is the person just to make it worse and if there are more people like him who knows whets going to happen
what I think the most important conflict of the book call me by my name is that in the book tater and rodney have a huge inside conflict that noone really knows about but rodney, and that conflict is that rodney knows that his sister angie has a huge crush on his bestfriend tater and he doesnt know what to do about it and there are obvious hints that they both do like each other so he is trapped in a corner. My reaction is that i'm kind of scared for Rodney because sooner or later he could be possibly third wheeling for them or it could even come to a point that tater would rather hangout with Angie than Rodney. And it could change the whole story.
yah i feel the same way its just rodney doesnt know and eventually its going to happen and rodney is not going to know what hit him also do you tjink they srE going to hook up
Hunter Shoulta 2nd hour i think the most important conflict in call me by my name is when rodney went and talked to coach about who starts on the football team and he said that the best players should start and just cause taers black that dosen´t mean that he shouldn't start everone should have the same chance
Bri Hennessey 4th hour I think the important conflict in Call Me By My Name is the racial discrimination. Tater Henry has faced a lot of discrimination because of his skin color. Where they live, having a person of color play as a quarterback is not normal. But since Tater is a good quarterback, coach put him in that position and got some hate for it. Coach didn't let the hate get to him though because he doesn't base his player's positions based on color, he bases them off of how well they perform.
The biggest conflict in call me by my name is racism.It is important to the plot because tater who is black and rodney who is white are best friends during this time is taboo and not normal ,but despite that there still friends.Also tater has fallen in love with rodney's twin sister but they cannot be together because he father ,also nobody would support them and people would look down on them if they were together,although rodeny is best friends with tater he also doesnt support them being together he would rather she be with someone white because he's scared what people would think of them.This makes me sad because they cant be together just because of their skin color.
