- Customs, Traditions, and Rituals
- Following them
- Questioning them
- Power
- Physical strength
- Gender issues
- Titles - achievements
- Religion - spirituality
- Elders
- Respect for
- Questioning of
- Family
- Parent / child
- Siblings
- Proverbs - sayings
- People / groups from the outside presenting a challenge to established order
After we share those, we'll read chapter 22 together and discuss the rising tension between the missionaries and the Ibo.
