Ruth Younger

She is 30 years old. Once she was pretty meaning that she is becoming old before her time due to all the worries she has. Her motivations are to keep her family together and try to save her marriage. Mostly she is like a settled-woman among her people. She is very practical and the type of woman who is a mediator. She is also a domestic worker. Ruth would always try to be the mediator when it came to family issues and problems. As she would tell Lena often “you got good children, Lena. They just a little off sometimes but they’re good.” I picked Tichina Arnold who plays the role of Rochelle in everybody hates Chris to play the role of Ruth. She is the intimidating, short-tempered, cranky, ghetto-snobbish and humorously sassy mother just like Ruth. I think that she would play Ruth’s role well due to their personality, attitude and way of doing things.
