Chapter 2- The name of this chapter is "Bicycle". I believe this is the name of the chapter because Ruth rides he bike a lot through the black neighborhoods. I think she rode her bike so much because she was trying to clear her head after her second husband died.
Chpt.3- the name of this chapter, is Kosher. This title led me to believe this chapter had to do something with Jewish people. turns out my thought was right and the chapter has to do with Ruth's parents that were polish Jews. Ruth's parents also had an arranged marriage.
Chpt. 4- Black power, this chapter is about James realizing that he is adopted. Beings how he is black and his mother was white with a different background then he had. I feel like being a black kid with a white mom back in that time would be very rough on a kid.
Chpt. 5- The old Testament, this chapter is similar to chapter 3, kosher, in the ways that it talks about Ruth and her poor Jewish family as well as her father continuing to try and make a life for his family by being a rabbi but he fails over and over.
