Response to Madison

            I too really liked the quote “She was thanking God for the blessings of her husband’s love: - so arranged our lives that our dear Armand will never know that his mother, who adores him, belongs to the race that is cursed with the brand of slavery” (1619). I love irony in stories. When I read this part, it made me want to punch Armand. To answer your question, I think that Armand will not admit to it. He will probably try to bury the fact that his mother was black, because he is too prideful and can’t admit his mistakes. Unfortunately, there are people out there that cannot let go of their pride and move on. Armand is one of these people.
