The experiences that people go through in life help shape their characters and actions. The behaviors that people exhibit cannot be looked at exclusively from an idealistic moral perspective. It is therefore important to look at an individual’s past situations before throwing a blanket judgment on them. This is the case with Troy Maxson in the play “Fences” written by August Wilson.
