Rapes by Precious’s own father
Precious has been continuously raped by her biological father since she was around 3 years old. Different from most victims of rapes, Precious does not scream or cry for help; instead, she chooses to remain silent. Here, we can see a very clear oppressive control Precious’s father has over her. Because black women are more inferior to men in the society, a lot of them choose not to speak up for themselves.
