I look and I see innocence everywhere. White walls, white floors and a lot of white people. As Michael is being brought into Leannes family through this dialogue it is conveyed that it is a difficult transition, Michael sees his race as a barricade between the acceptance of his new world, which highlights the void between the rich white population and the less gilded finale which Michael was born into- Mich ael doesnt perceive himself to belong. through with(predicate) plot development alienation becomes less apparent and Michael is adopted within new culture that he becomes apart of, Michael belongs to his new world.
