Discussion: The Colour Purple

what do you think the colour purple symbolizes
during easter the priest wears the colour purple to comemorate the death of Jesus i.e he was crusified and died for us and this was a sign of torture
i think it symbolizes the crusifiction of the women by the men in the way that they were treated and mistreated alongwith otherthihgs

i think the movie symbolisize a good friendship



i think the movie symbolizes:
- a strong friendship
- and hope

i think the purple part of it stands for how unlucky the women were treated back then and how it has been changed. along with the colour, which not many like, it has changed the views and power of women.

Purple in the bible is a sign of Royality. So when the priest wears the purple it is to singnify Christ's royality.
