Question

Explain the characterization of Trevor’s parents and how they interconnected.

Answer 1

Explanation:

For example, in his memoir, Trevor describes his mother (Patricia Nombuyiselo Noah) as a devout black Christian who often prays and goes to church, she is also a bold woman considering the fact that she was determined to become a secretary even that weren't available for black women at the time.

Robert, Trevor's biological white father also showed some act of courage when he helped Patricia (Trevor's mother) rent a room in a white neighborhood, he even opened a restaurant that once welcomed people of different races.

In a sense, both of Trevor's parents are interconnected in their personality, since they had the moral strength to go against all odds in showing love to not just their son, but to their entire community when doing so was considered a crime by many.
