Who plays crooks in 'Of Mice and Men'?

Answer 1

Nobody. It was Lennie and Curley that fought. Also, Curley started the fight. Crooks did not get into a fight with anyone, in the story.

there was no particular fight more off a threat to crook when all the people had went out and curly s wife was left with all the other people who are also foreshadowed. Curley's wife comes by on the pretence of looking for Curley (she is always "looking" for Curley) Crooks tells her to leave. Curley's wife turns vicious and threatens to accuse Crooks of rape. For Crooks, the punishment would mean certain death.

Crooks, Candy and Lennie were sharing the idea of the dream with each other when Curley's wife invites herself in. She is cruel to each of them and mocks their idea of getting a farm together-

'If you had two bits in the worl', why you'd be gettin' two shots of corn with it and sucking the bottom of the glass. I know you guys.'

Her insults anger Crooks, and he finds the courage to face up to her. She is able to crush him quickly, however, with the threat of a lynching-

'I could get you strung up in a tree so easy it ain't even funny.'

Answer 2

In the novel "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck, the characters George and Lennie encounter various adversaries and obstacles, including Crooks, who is the stable hand at the ranch where they work. Crooks is a complex character who faces racial discrimination and loneliness due to being the only African-American man on the ranch.
