Bronx Character Comprassion

While reading Bronx we have learned about many different characters. All of the characters are different, but they are similar in some ways. One way that they are similar is that they all have problems. Like Lupe has family problems, Wesley thinks he is going to die, Diondra has problems with her father, Gloria is a teen mom, and Chankara is getting hit by her boyfriend.

Wesley, and Tyrone are similar and different in some ways. One way that they are similar is because they are both African American. One difference is that Wesley cares about school, but doesn't like to show it, while Tyrone does not like school at all, and thinks that school is a complete joke. For some weird reason Wesley is scared for his life, and thinks that he is going to end up dead, while Tyrone is not scared for his life.

The next two characters that I am going to compare, contrast are Gloria, and Lupe. Gloria is a teen mom, and is struggling taking care of her child, because the father had told her that he does not want anything to do with the baby, while Lupe thinks that Gloria is lucky to have a child, and wants to become a teen mom too. Even though Lupe sees how bad Gloria is struggling, she still want's a baby really badly, and Gloria wants her to see that. They both have many problems. Gloria does not have time for sleep, or study for test, and school in general, while Lupe is having family problems. Her father had left her mom, and her alone along time ago, her mother is currently in a abusive relationship, and her step father say's mean things to her. These just four of the many characters in this book.
