Sofia

Sofia is Harpo's wife and a character from Alice Walkers The Color Purple. Sofia comes from the word philosophy and means wisdom and that is what she is to Celie. She importnat because she is Celies first dose of wisdom. She is the first to critique Celie and force her to see the "woman as doormat" idea. She helps grow in a big way before Shug gets there. She is also the first person to make Celie laugh which shows the emergence of the women.
