Answer:
According to the narrator of "Everyday Use," Maggie and Dee are different in many ways. Maggie is shy, timid, and unattractive, while Dee is confident, outgoing, and attractive. Maggie was badly burned in a fire that destroyed their old house and has never entirely recovered. Dee is also very intelligent, and she uses this to belittle the other two characters. Their attitudes regarding their mother’s quilts illustrate another difference between the sisters. Dee wants these keepsakes to show off her African heritage, but relevant knows little about that heritage. Maggie knows about her heritage, but doesn’t care about showing it off.
