Rule of the Bone #141-175

Summary: Now Bone is riding with the guy and he tells him to hide the money since hes running a show and doesn't want to give the people the money beforehand especially since they were black. Then as their there the group gets into it with the guy and ask for the money and as that happens bone tries to escape with froggy but froggy doesn't seem like she wants to go. Then the Adirondack Iron, or whats left of them, fight the group now and bone convinces froggy to go and they finally head out. Now they head back to the school bus that Russ showed bone last time and to their surprise there was a new guy there who was Jamaican and his name was I-man. He gets to know him and his story and how he to to the bus and what he wants to do: I-man was a farmer worker and since he was a Rasta he didn't like anything unnatural so he left and he now wants to make it back to Jamaica without the government catching him since he has no documents. Then they all live together and Froggy opens up more and tells bone her mom's name and he wants to call her and let her know she has her daughter. After he calls her, her mother thinks its a joke then its serious and she finalizes to bring her home and bone does that and promises to buy her a ticket home.

Quote: "every honest man was an outlaw" (Banks 156)

Reaction: This quote is a very powerful quote given by I-man on the bus while bone and him were talking about slavery. what i take from this quote is that every person who stood up for what they believed in were criminals in society back then in racist and slavery times.
