I think that both Zachariah and Charlotte are the odd man out and have few or no friends. Zachariah wants a friend and saw that Charlotte was alone and thought they could be friends, but Charlotte is still scared to make any friends.
I believe that Zachariah and Charolette will become friends because he is the only person who is actually nice to Charolette. They will become friends for another reason: Charolette needs a friend BADLY!!!!! I believe that this need will become so great that she agrees and becomes friends!
I think that they possibly could, and might not be friends because Charlotte is all petite and pretty and Zachariah is very dirty and he thinks they COULD be friends.
As a daughter of a legitimate American businessman, so I believe that she believes that it's un-proper for a young lady to be friends with a black man, because at that time period, African-Americans were thought of as lesser beings than white men, so Charlotte thought that it would be extremely improper for her to be friends with Zachariah
Also, they COULD be friends because they are both not accepted because they; 1 Charlotte is the only girl, and 2, Zachariah is dirty and almost every job on the ship
I think that they will never be friends Because one is a rich girl that is snooty and one is an old crusty guy who looks ugly. This "friendship" will only happen in movies and fairytales.
I think the exact same thing as Madison, that both Zachariah and Charlotte have very limited friends or none at all and that Charolatte is still afraid to make any friends, so she didn't want to be friends with Zachariah.
I think that she and Zachariah will be friends soon even if she disagrees now. I think that because he seems the only nice person and the only one who talks to her. After a while, she will become accused of something and maybe the only person who will be believe her would be Zachariah.
Charolotte just needs time to figure some things out in her head, right now her so called "family" isn't on the ship, she has to learn where everything is, her luggage she just recieved and now there is a weird man trying to approch her. Eventually When Charolotte figures things out i think that she may end up wanting to be Zachariah's friend.
I think that Zachariah and Charolette will become friends eventually because Charolette needs a friend BADLY! She is so lonely and the only person that nice to her is Zachariah. Even though he is a very weird person they should still be friends because both of them are very lonely and need a companion to help them along the journey.
I think Charlotte should agree to be friends with Zachariah because she has not had that many people show affection to her while she was on the ship, plus he had a point when he named some opposites. The point that made the most sense to me was when Zachariah said that he was old while she was young. This is a similarity because most of the others are in there mid age period but an old and a young group could learn off of each other. Zachariah is very intelligent and so is Charlotte so I believe they will be friends.
Charlotte is being accused of murder, so the thought of having friends to her is negative. Zachariah probably thinks tat she is innocent, but maybe Charlotte doesn't know that.
I think that Zachariah wanted to be friends with Charlotte because he knew the boat was going to be a hard place to live. He thinks they will be friends because she will need someone to help guide her through what is to come. I don't know how I would react to that either because this was not the most convenient time to suggest being friends. Charlotte was still shocked that she was on a boat by herself.
I think Charolette is judging Zachariah to harshly and that she thinks she is to good for him. She is also to focused on getting home that she doesn't want a friend.
Zachariah thinks that charolette and him are going to be friends but charolette doesnt think that i think that they will end up being friends because zachariah wants to be friends with her and if you want to be friends with someone that bad you will probably endup being friends and also i think that when she is accused of murder he will help her and they will end up being friends.
I think that Charlotte is scared to be friends with Zachariah because she said that it would be improper for a girl to be on a ship full of men when she was the only girl there, plus like Ryan said, in that time period African Americans were thought of as lesser beings that white people, which would give it an even bigger reason for it to be improper for her.
Zachariah thinks they can become friends because on page 23 it says " Miss Doyle is so young!I am so old!Surely there is something similar in that.And you,the sole girl,and I,the one black,are special on this ship.In short,we begin with two things in common,enough to begin a friendship.''
There's just so many differences between them.Usually you make a friendship by having things in common but this wasn't the case.He is a man and she is a girl.He is an African American she is Caucasian.
I think Zachariah will become very "useful" to Charlotte. I think Charlotte just doesn't know Zachariah enough yet. Charlotte hasn't given enough time to start making conclusions about whether Zachariah is her friend or not. Also, Madison I disagree with you saying Charlotte has no friends. You were right about Zachariah, but I disagree about you're statement about Charlotte. I don't think there's any text evidence about Charlotte not having friends. Perhaps, I could be wrong. Dig deep in the book. Prove me wrong. =) (Charlotte might have a friend and just not know it yet...)
I believe that Zachariah and Charlotte will eventually be great friends because they will be able to lean on each other when anything happens to one or the other.

ReplyDeletei think that zacariah and captin jaggery are trying to frame charlotte with the dirk that captin jaggery gave her
ReplyDeleteSam, how could Charolette find out that Zachariah is on her side?
