Why does Linda get so upset when her daughter is given a gold necklace to wear? What is she comparing that act to? Do you agree with the comparison
Linda is upset by this gold chain/necklace because to her it represents the chains of slavery. Even if the chain is of gold she doesn’t want her daughter to be in the chains of slavery. She describes slavery as an iron chain that enters the soul and no matter how nice the chains are life just isn’t worth it if you’re bound by slavery.

I feel like you have the start of some very good ideas. I really wish you would have gone into more symbolizim about the chain and how if affected how she personally felt and not just what she stated. You also did not seem to bring in your ideas about how you felt about what she said. Although I agree with you about how life isn't worth it if you are bound to something as awful as slavery.
