Do not forget why you're attending these conferences, who you're doing this for. We are your own children. You are deciding what

kind of world we are growing up in. Parents should be able to comfort their children by saying,
"Everything's going to be all right," "It's not the end of the world," and "We're doing the best we can."

But I don't think you can say that to us anymore. Are we even on your list of priorities? My father always says,"You are what you do, not what you say."

Well, what you do makes me cry at night. You grown-ups say you love us. I challenge you: Please make your actions reflect your words.

—“The Girl Who Silenced the World for Five Minutes,”
Severn Cullis-Suzuki

According to the passage, why does Suzuki believe parents can no longer say things like, “Everything’s going to be all right”?

because the adults have forgotten why they attend the conferences
because their actions do not match their words
because she cries at night
because her father told her that these sayings do not make sense

erik [133]

Answer:

tense and unequal.

Explanation:

The excerpt from Langston Hughes' poem "Harlem" shows a speaker who feels that the relationship between whites and African Americans is tense and uneven. This is made clear when the dream of equality for African Americans is always postponed, because whites continue to be favored by society. As a result, African Americans are increasingly distant from being treated as equals and this tense and uncomfortable relationship, where their dreams weigh, sink, dry and explode.
