The group hanging out in front of the movies cringed when Larry sauntered around the corner. His personality was so forceful tha

t he could hardly keep from giving everyone a hard time. Jimmy spoke up to greet him, "Hey, Larry. I liked your speech today in class. You were quite, um, assertive when you jumped in and took Harold's turn." Henry chimed in, "Yeah, I thought that Harold was acting a bit too modestly to get on with it." Larry answered back favorably, "Thanks, guys. Do you mind if I join you?" "No, not at all," said George, the group's unofficial leader. He was self-confident enough to take charge in any situation, figuring he was the best man for the job whether or not anyone else agreed. Larry got in line behind them, and when he stepped up to the counter to purchase his ticket, the young clerk at the window nervously rang up his ticket. She fumbled with his change. "Don't mind her," grumbled the deliberately paced veteran from the back of the booth. "She's new, but I bet she'll get the hang of things in no time," he offered with a rather unconvincing wink. 8 What does the word forceful suggest about Larry's personality in the paragraph above?

If you have low pathos the audience is likely to try to find flaws in your arguments.

Answer:

skin

Explanation:

Further, the narrator tells the readers, “All depends, all depends on the skin,/all depends on the skin you're living in”(45-46), repeatedly throughout the poem to emphasize the irony that one's skin color can dictate the way they are able to live, and the way other's force them to live.
