As a child growing up in the depression era you would have your mother sewing all of your clothes for you for the summer and winter. Also during the depression era blacks were not effected really becasue they were already in poverty. to really understand how blacks had to deal with the depression i suggest reading this interview at http://library.thinkquest.org/12111/mculley.html This interview gives you the real deal on what it was like for blacks in the depression.Also during the depression alot blacks were deppending on eachother for alot of things the reason they depended on eachother was because they knew the white man wasn't going to give you nothhing. to understand thorughlly i suggest http://www.biography.com/video.do?name=womenshistory&bcpid=1859729963&bclid=1631259987&bctid=1620576794. This shows how it was for blacks.

Big Idea
http://www.apa.org/releases/sexabuse/effects.html
what is it? it is talking about the after effects of sexual abuse to children (things that might happen in some cases).
where is it from? who wrote/created it? it is from the American Psychological Assiociation
in a paragraph or two, why would this be useful to readers before they started reading? what ideas would you want them to think about? how would this piece help get at those ideas? do you agree or disagree with the ideas in the piece?
I believe that this piece would be helpful to read before reading I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings, because the story is supposed to based on Maya Angelou getting sexually abused as a child. Of course she had after effects of after the drama of being raped by her former stepfather figure. This piece might explain why she got really sick and why her underwear were bloody.

I believe that knowing about rape before you beging reading I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings is helpful, because the main part of the book is when Maya gets sexually abused as a young child by her stepfather figure.it's helpfull knowing what all she might be going through even though it might not mention everything.it's advised to just take care of yourself wether its reporting the rape,like when Maya was in court for it after telling Bailey, or ever just taking care of your own health.
