Answer:
Paul’s relationship with his white father and their shared name is not acceptable to society.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the book titled, 'The Land', by Mildred D. Taylor, we learn of a young boy whose father was unsure of making him his namesake because of what the society would have thought about it. The boys father was a white man who bore an illegitimate son by a black woman. His mother hoped that her husband would name the boy after him, but because of his fear of what people will say, he opted to call him Paul-Edward when they were away from people.
Other members of the family also called the boy Paul-Edward stealthily, away from the judgmental society.
