Crooks exclaims, “’Cause I’m black” (68). Lennie inquires why Crooks is unwanted and Crooks exclaims, “’Cause I’m black (68).

Crooks exclaims, “’Cause I’m black” (68). Do’sDon’t Introduce your quote When you explain a quote your explanation should some how refer back to your claim/thesis. Let a quote stand alone Repeat what the quote says Don’t refer to a quote by saying “this quote shows” Don’t simply move to the next point.
