Toni Morrison said at a college graduation speech at Barnard titled Cinderella's Stepsisters, "...the function of freedom is to free somebody else". What exactly does this mean/how does this quote relate to the speech? The entire speech can be found here about halfway down the webpage. http://danielleharms.wikispaces.com/file/view/%2522Cinderella's+Stepsisters%2522.pdf

I read the book Sula by Toni Morrison for school and now i have to write a paper on the topic is basically about who was the hero in the story. At first i thought the main character which is Sula but she did a lot of bad things BUT it brought people together. Then i was thinking Eva because she been through a lot throughout the story. I may end up picking Eva but I wanted to know what do you think.

I need to write and present an in-depth research paper on the author Toni Morrison and her work "Sula" and would like some strong important information on her biographical background, where she was born, knowing about the author's background, telling what I know about the author, thematic references what are the themes she deals with and also need examples of critical analysis. What are some of the important things that I can present in my oral presentation and what is a good way to outline this research paper and a strong thesis statement. Please help me if you can. Thanks in advance.

In the book Beloved by Toni Morrison, who or what is Beloved? (name some theories, suggestions, guesses, etc)
