Setting - Mood

The mood for my story will mostly be tense/suspenseful yet dramatic/relieved. When Rosa Parks refuses to give up her seat and when she and Martin Luther King, Jr. help with the bus boycott the mood will be very suspenseful. The reader will be wondering what will then happen, and how she'll get out of jail. After that, Maya Angelou will hear Rosa Parks is in jail for not giving up her seat to a white man, which is when she'll start writing poems to the surrounding community. This will make the story very dramatic. Everyone will be very touched by the poems, and Rosa Parks will be let out of Jail. The mood will then changed to relieved. Anything could have happend to Rosa when she was in jail, and she could have been there for many years for what she'd done. African Americans , especially, will be very relieved when she was released. When Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr. are involved with the Montgomery bus boycott after Rosa is let out of jail, the story will be tense again. Maya Angelou will help with the affect of this boycott by writing more inspiring poems to the community.
