In 'Everyday Use' by Alice Walker, the story touches on true family and knowledge, rather than ethnic posturing, and generational disconnect, coupled with an alienation of the classes. The protagonist, Dee, has acquired a good education as a result of her uneducated mother's sacrifice. Rather than gratitude, Dee uses her education as a weapon to fashion herself as superior over her family. The family has its own rich, personal heritage, but Dee can neither see nor appreciate it. She chooses to change her name and hijack a trendy but fake African identity, rather than strive to understand and accept the beauty of her true heritage.
