Juana represents the Mexican- Indian culture through what Steinbeck sees as loyal, devoted and meek. For example, even when Kino, Juana’s husband, beats her, she returns to him and forgives him willingly. In our society today, if a husband were to beat his wife she would leave him. Juana has enough compassion and willingness to understand her husband, and able to forgive him. Juana is loyal and submissive, obeying her husband as her culture requires. She understands that he makes mistakes and lets Kino work through them. Juana’s people trust her. They know that she won’t give up on them. She will help them get through their problems or ordeals. This shows that her cultures of Mexican- Indians understand and humble themselves.
