Answer:
This poem shows the problem of how African Americans were treated and Cullen's comment is that he does not lose hope, that this will change.
Explanation:
Cullen reflects on these lines that African Americans are somehow oppressed by whites.<em> "We shall not always plant while others reap"</em>, <em>"Not always bend to some more subtle brute".
</em>
This problem will come to an end, since they will not wait forever or continue to suffer.

Answer:
The answer choice that best explains the effect King achieves by using the words "sacred" and "creed" is:
C. The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion.
Explanation:
In his famous speech "I Have a Dream," Dr. King uses the words "sacred" and "creed" when speaking of unalienable rights and equality.<u> Both words are deeply related to faith and religion. Dr. King, a true master of rhetoric, is intelligently creating a connection that emphasizes the importance of the Declaration's text. By using such words, he is evoking in his audience the same sense of seriousness and respect they would have towards their religion and toward the Scriptures. He is making the Declaration sound as sanctified in its importance as the Bible. </u>
With that in mind, we can safely choose letter C as the correct option: C. The words emphasize the importance of the Declaration's text by equating it with the founding document of a religion.
