Tea cake is delirious when he gets bit and try’s to hurt Janie and Janie kills him and was found not guilty, this shows racism

Tea cake is still protective despite how he can be at other times

Hurricane happens and time to reflect is occurring

Jealousy!!!!

This is showing Janie the difference of her new relationship to her previous

Janie falls in love and gets married although others are very opposed to this and attempt to make her doubt

Janie ignores what those around her have to say and follows what she believes is right

Janie is looking for her reason and purpose, without Joe

Janie has reached her breaking point and let Joe know that

She realizes this isn’t the relationship she wants anymore after being a victim to Jody’s abusive tendency’s.

She continues to be controlled by the men she gets with.

A lot of manipulation going on between Joe snd Janie. Joe is trying to convince her that he can “treat” her better, although in a lot of ways Joe, and Logan are similar people

Janie realizes if she wants love she will have to look deeper than what she thinks. She begins to understand all of what comes with marriage.

Janie questions marriage,the nanny is almost insistent on marriage for Janie.
