Black Boy First Response

I think that the reason why Wright is so angry is actually a conglomerate of things piled on top of one and another. First off is when he was ordered to be quite by his mother, and end up burning the house down which results in a severe beating. Next is when he was playing with a kitten, and his father Nathan tells him to, “Kill that damn thing!” which Richard does promptly by hanging it, only to be punished again which makes Richard even angrier because he was only doing what he was told. And finally is when his father leaves him, and Richard finds any white family enjoying a meal as disgusting. All these events made Richard angry, but angry enough to do something about it, where 25 years later he is a successful man.
