Every time an author introduces a character, they try to
tell us enough to help us know what is coming up.

Usually their separation is because of race. But Crooks has earned a loyalty from the

as the black man in the story on the surface level, but I think if you take it to the
next level of depth you can see that he has many qualities that would cause the other
men to be jealous.
