In Alice Walker's "Everyday Use," Dee treats her mother and sister, Maggie, with a sense of condescension and superiority. She often dismisses their way of life and heritage, viewing them as unrefined and lacking appreciation for their cultural roots. Dee's attitude reflects a broader theme of cultural identity and the complexities of heritage, as she seeks to claim her ancestry in a way that feels more performative than genuine. This creates tension and conflict between her and her family, particularly with Maggie, who is more connected to their family's traditions.

Who is the antagonist of Everyday Use?
The story begins in the South during the 1960's. It takes place in Maggie, and her mother's home. When Dee, Maggie's older sister, comes to visit with her boyfriend the family learns that she has changed her name to Wangero because she did not want to be named by white people anymore. Maggie is obviously afraid, or distrustful of her older sister because when she arrives Maggie hides behind her Mom. They all sit down to dinner, where Dee takes the churn top, and the dasher to decorate her house. Then, after dinner, Dee rifles through Maggie's trunk to find two old quilts done by their grandma. She requests to have the quilts, but when her mother says that she should take different ones, Dee insists that they had to be these ones. Maggie is very upset about this because that was her reminder of her grandmother, and her heritage. At this point, their mother finally stands up for Maggie, and grabs the quilts out of Dee's hands, and places them into Maggie's lap. Dee, flabbergasted, goes out to the car, and leaves.
