Of Mice and Men- Chapter 4

When Crook tells Lennie that since he isn't invited into "white quaters", if Lennie was able to comprehend exactly what Crook was saying to him, what do you think his reaction would have been? How might he have handled the situation?

I think Lennie would've been more upset and curious. He would have asked a lot of qustions and probably get himself into trouble with the other boys. He'd probably want them to invite Crook along and they would figure he was insane or something. If Lennie listened to all the prejudices against black people, he probably would have become violent, if not with the boys, then wth people who looked down on black people. In his eyes, people were pretty much equal except he is a little lower in intelligence than George. With all this confusion, there's bound to be some kinda fight, most likely between Curly and Lennie because they already have had a few run-ins.
