Why does Rashad lie to Shirley, the woman who works at the gift shop, when she asked him how he got so badly hurt?

Rashad lied to Shirley because he wa ashamed of what happened to him, even though he was not wrong.

Explanation:

"All American Boys" is a book co-authored by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely. The book speaks about the lasting impact that racism have on the lives of people. The book is focused on the lives of two young boys 'Rashad' and 'Quinn.' Rashad was a victim of racism while Quinn was the witness of this racist act.

Rashad, was an African American high school junior, who was brutally beaten up by police for the crime that he did not commit. He was falsely accused of shoplifting because he was black.

In chapter 8 of the book, when Rashad went to hospital and entered the hospital's gift shop, he lied to Shirley about his wounds. He did not lie because he was wrong but because he was ashamed of what happened to him. He lied because if he would have told the truth, he might have been misjudged once again.

gilgamesh is an epic hero from birth, as he's brought to the world by the hand of several gods who shaped him with the goal of saving humanity. there's a passage from the text that reads "the glorious sun shamash bestowed upon him glory; adad the terrible god of storms bestowed upon him courage. the great gods perfected his magnificence beyond all others, terrible like the great wild bull". this is a great example that show some of the super-human qualities that the gods gave gilgamesh upon his birth.

as gilgamesh grows he has to face many challenges that put his heroism to task. the courage he displays along the way, prove that he's ready to live up to the godly qualities brought upon him. at one point he has to overcome a wild beast by the name of hubamba "whose roar is a flood, whose mouth is fire, whose breath is death", as the text reads. the actions taken by gilgamesh, beating the beast with the use of his super-human force, examplify why he shoud be thought of as an epic hero.
