"He felt ensnared in a tangle of deep shadow, shadows as black as night that stretched above his head" (72).
This was a very uncomfortable scene for Bigger. As much as Mary and Jan tried to make Bigger feel comfortable they just made even more awkward for him. First Mary makes him break the rules by not going to the university, which may potentially cost him his job. She was with a guy who he does not know and he started driving. It was like Bigger lost control of everything he was suppose to do and to make matters even worst Jan and Mary are questioning him about things he does not really want to talk about. Also I think they believe just because Bigger is black he as to join the communist group even if he does really want to and does not know what it is all about. On the other hand Jan and Mary were kind because they tried treat him as a human being that was equal to them.
Will Bigger ever want to join the union or became a communist?
