In "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," the white folks are disrespectful to Momma because of racism and prejudice. They look down on her and treat her unfairly because of her race, showing the pervasive impact of discrimination in the segregated South during that time. This mistreatment serves to highlight the challenges faced by African Americans in a deeply divided society.
The guiding force in Momma's life in the book "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" is her unwavering faith and devotion to her family, her community, and her values. Momma's strength, resilience, and integrity serve as a constant source of inspiration and guidance for the people around her, including the author, Maya Angelou.
Vivian Baxter Johnson, or 'Mother Dear', is Maya and Bailey's mother.
The book that contains Momma's encounter is "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou. The encounter refers to the incident in the book where Momma, Angelou's grandmother, stands up to a white dentist who refuses to see Angelou.
Marguerite and Bailey are living with Momma in I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings because their parents' marriage has fallen apart and they have been sent to live with their grandmother in Stamps, Arkansas for stability and care. Momma provides a loving and nurturing environment for them during a difficult time in their lives.
The anachronism in Stamps, Arkansas in Maya Angelou's book "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" was Momma, her grandmother. Momma possessed qualities and values that seemed out of step with the times in which she lived, making her an anachronism in the community.
LIL' MOMMA!

The formal name of Sister Henderson's (Momma) store in I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is the Wm. Johnson General Merchandise Store, but it was always referred to simply as the Store.
kids are disrespectful to their parents because they think their grown when they get 18 years old and when they momma tell them to do something then they will say i grown i don't need you but then later they asking they momma to help them pay the bills because they ain't got all of the rent money or gas money or any thing. but then kids have to think about it they momma was there for you so be there for your momma too because she could of gave you away to somebody else because she couldn't be there for you and she ain't got no money but she got on her feet just to be in your life.
Do you mean "mama's in the graveyard, papa's in the pen"? If you do, its Garth Brooks
Annie Henderson provides Bailey and Maya with a home that is nuturing and safe, but she also uses strict christian rules as wellVivian baxter provides Bailey and Maya with a home that is independent and self induciing. she doesnt use strict christian rules, but she allows the kids to learn from the experiences and morals, guiding them without leading to do the right thing like Annie Henderson shows.
No, children can call pretty much any adult by any title they wish as long as it is not disrespectful and the parents/guardians are comfortable with it. A child who does not have a "momma" in the traditional sense may at some point wish to call their caregiver momma because all their peers refer to their mothers by that name, but there is no rule saying that it is required.
