Faith and Religion

I think that religion and faith have alot to do with the book "The Color of Water". I think this becauswe that is what really keeps the family going especially because the children come from a bi racial marriage that there parents have. For example how James was asking his mother that what color skin god was. She would say that he has no color that he is whatever color he is next too. That shows that there religion is a big part of their life and is very open. Another example would be when James mother went to the store to go and return the milk because it was spoiled. That shows that she will stand up for what she knows is right and wrong.
