Everyday use is about a family of African American people and about their daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the past, the main characters Dee, Maggie and \u201cmama\u201d had their house burn down for a unknown reason. Dee didn\u2019t help Maggie or mama to get the fire down because Dee didn\u2019t like the house, thinking it was too old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main thing in this story is when Dee wanted a quilt that was owned by Grandma saying that it was a valuable memory. The quilt was originally supposed to be given to Maggie, but Dee said that Maggie already knew how to make a quilt. Ironically Dee\u2019s reason that Maggie already knew how to quilt just proves the fact that she thinks its just a quilt, meanwhile earlier, she said that the quilt is special and cannot be REPLACED. Furthermore, Dee came to their house in a fancy dress and jewelry, and after the encounter, Dee was a completely different person from who they knew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
