What You Pawn I will Redeem

(Sherman Alexie, 2003)

 

 

Prompt 2

 

I choose prompt 2- “What you pawn I will redeem.” (Sherman Alexie 2003). In some stories, characters come into conflict with the culture in which they live. What interest me the most is how he lived comfortable being homeless. Today we view homeless as a last resort, it’s not something that we choose to do. Yet, this man adapted to his environment and lived a suitable life. Thesis: It takes a lot of courage and strength to be a homeless person. I would like to explore what it really takes to be a homeless person.

Updated thesis: It takes a lot of courage and strength to be a homeless person

I would like to start off by writing in detail the meaning of being homeless. I believe before we explore this matter we first must understand what homeless mean. We must also understand what has lead people to be homeless. I would talk about how Jackson was once in college, married and now homeless. What life events Jackson faced that made him become homeless.

 

The effects of being homeless

Being homeless has several effects such as your health physically and mentally. It also effect your loved ones around you. When Jackson became homeless he isolated himself from his family and got new friends which became like his family. When Jackson was trying to raise money for the pawn shop his friends supported him through the process.
