Long Answer

1. The Brooks poem stresses that all people are connected and have a responsibility to take care of one another. This connectedness in Lucille is shown when Hibiscus’s choice to not seek help before he hurts someone has a harmful ripple effect in the community, and Jam’s actions to identify what Hibiscus has done and bring the community together to set it right demonstrate the mutual responsibility community members have. (Various chapters)

2. Because Jam was constantly misgendered as a small child and has had to struggle to show others who she really is, she understands very well that there is a difference between appearance and reality, between the seen and the unseen. This makes her ideally suited to search for someone who seems like an “angel” on the outside but whose inner reality is far different from his appearance. (Various chapters)
