Compare and Contrast

Have you ever wondered what its like to live in a place where everyone judges you for the color of your skin? Well Celeste Tyree(Freshwater road) and Abileen Clark (The Help) both live in the same world but are different as well. both of their worlds are different but also the same in a way.

Celeste Tyree and Abileen Clark have many similarities. one of them is that they were both dealing with the race issues in the 60’s. Celeste and Abileen also both live in Mississippi where there is a lot of race issues . they both try to help people and are friends with many people in their town Celeste by helping register votes and Abileen by praying for people. They both threaten people because of the color of their skin.  They both struggle with being discriminated by their race.

Celeste and Abileen also have many differences one of them is that they have a big age difference Abileen is in her 40’s or 50’s and Celeste is a sophomore in college. Celeste has her father and Abileen has no one since her son died. I also think in personal opinion that Celeste is stronger than Abileen and has more strength than her and can handle the racism better.

Even though Celeste and Abileen are very different they are also very similar their goals are similar but yet different they both want to help people but they want to do it in different ways.
