How is the topic/issue of racism represented in this section? Discuss in terms of the whole section, but still focus on the major incidents (Alfred getting fired, Helen's argument with Mona over Alfred getting fired, Mona getting banned from the Gugelstein's). How has the author portrayed Helen (negative/positive/neither explain)?
What does this section say as a whole on stereotyping? Is stereotyping part of human nature? Why does Helen stereotype? Why is Mona an "American Girl"? Is this accurate? To what extent does stereotyping take part in our own lives? What effect does it have?
Can you just 'switch'? Why or why not?
