Where pharaoh and lafeyette live they call it the grave yard because it’s so run down and since the lights bulbs are not working they have to use flashlights to walk through the main lobby in the morning. Violence is around but is worst in the summer #Chapter 2

Pharoah’s environment becomes particularly chaotic a few weeks before the spelling bee. A couple of weeks earlier two acquaintances of the family have a violent fight in their apartment and one of them shoots a pistol. #chapter19

It remains unclear whether Lafeyette talks back to the policeman or is too slow to obey but the policeman suddenly grabs him by the collar and throws him into a puddle of water telling him that “These white people don’t have no money to give no niggers.” #chapter17

In the weeks following Jimmie Lee’s conviction violence at Horner slows down a bit. This allows Pharoah’s stutter to subside and he and Lafeyette go to an outdoor swimming pool or to the Boys Club to play. #thingsaregettingbetter #Chapter15

Lafeyette liked Craig because Craig listens to Lafeyette’s opinions treating him as an equal and has a big dream of living in a home in a safe neighborhood far from Horner a capacity to project himself into the future #13

When Pharoah is picked to spell in the school’s spelling bee he practises for weeks before the contest words and training himself to relax and think calmly before speaking so that he will not stutter. when he stands on the stage he becomes so nervous afraid that he will stutter
