Both Kevin and Dana know that they can’t change history. They say: “We’re in the middle of history. We surely can’t change it” (p. 100); and “It’s over . . . . There’s nothing you can do to change any of it now” (p. 264). What, then, is the purpose of Dana’s travels back to the antebellum South? Why must you, the reader, experience this journey with Dana? 

Primary Blog Expectations (respond to the prompt above): 60-100 words, minimal errors in grammar and usage, thoughtful and thorough writing. Please use the name you were assigned in class as your nom de plume and be sure to add word count. Due by 11:59pm Friday night 1-10-2021!

I think the Reason Why dana travels back to the south to get like a first Hand experince of how things for her current time and life back then are totally different. But I now think she understands that and will change her look on things.
