their eyes were waching god ch. 1,2

When Janie is returning home from her long the people judge her on the way she appears and the way she just keep walking. They judge her before she has a chance to justify and explain her self. Janie then starts to tell her story to Pheoby. Janie talk about being a kid growing up in a all white house being black and how Janie did not realize she was black and is humiliated by that. The two events are somewhat similar in that both Janie is being the one made fun of. Janie has also set herself up for this judgment made of her because of what she said or did. She should not be judged for both of these events but the sad truth is that she is.
