In his famous speech at the March on Washington in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “I have a dream that my four little ch

ildren will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Theodore Taylor published The Cay six years later, in 1969. The dedication to the novel read: “To Dr. King’s dream, which can only come true if the very young know and understand.” What does Taylor want young people to “know and understand”? How will this help Dr. King’s dream come true? Explain what the dedication means and how the message of the book is connected to Dr. King’s dream. Use at least two details from the novel to support your answer.

well to answer the first question Theodore would want the the young people to know and understand racism and why it is wrong. For the second question this will help Dr. Kings dream because the youth is the future of the country. Idk how to answer the last question because it has been years since I have read this book, although, I hope I helped!!!

Answer:

I think that Taylor wants young people to understand, that no matter what the skin color, or the race, treat people equally, because one day, they might be your only way of survival.

In the story of <em>The Cay</em>, Phillip learns to realize that Timothy was his only way of survival, even though in the beginning,  he thought that an old black man wouldn't be any use for him. Turns out, he was wrong, he began to realize that Timothy wasn't only an old black man, he was a friend.

I personally think that Timothy would be one of the greatest friends that Phillip might have, because it is very rare for a friend, anyone in fact, to barely risk their life to help save someone. Especially when you must experience being blind and having to rely on someone for survival.

Anyone please help me. Please do for me I will give points or likes please. 'The open road stretched ahead of them. There was on
marta [7]

Answer:

The open road stretched ahead of them. There was only one way they could go. In the distance Kaiden saw a faint light piercing through the trees. Exhausted, the group finally made it to the light source. The old man on the porch of the cabin, the official “Welcome Committee” quickly raised his gun when he saw the daunting stature of Kristian, standing at 6’6. He then slowly lowered his gun when he saw the injured young gentleman. Though suspicious, the old man invited the group inside and made an ice bath for Tyler’s sprained ankle. He then asked how the injury happened. Kristian happily told the story, still secretly laughing as he replayed the events in his head.

The old man tried to hide his laughter while eating, but he could barely stop himself. Tyler began to groan again in pain, so the old man asked Kristian to retrieve the pain medicine from the cabinet in his bedroom. Kristian returned with the medicine along with what seemed like an ancient scroll which he accidentally picked up. Being a guest, he walked nervously towards the dinner table but, this ancient relic was too much to resist.

The group immediately started asking the old man questions about the scroll. He tried to answer vaguely until he couldn’t hold this life changing secret any longer. He carefully told the group about the secrets of what the scroll held, it was a map which led to the world's most precious riches, a tomb in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean. Being the last living member of the Zulu tribe, the old man knew that he couldn’t just share this information with everyone.

He trembled as he began to translate the map from the ancient language. Hours later, they had finally He trembled as he began to translate the map from the ancient language. Hours later, they had finally decrypted every piece of information from the scroll. They awoke the next morning, tired, but confident. In transit along the beautiful roads of Los Angeles, they suddenly noticed a suspicious black van driving recklessly towards them. The van abruptly crashed into the car in front of them and caused a huge commotion. Kaiden immediately understood what was going on as he saw the green smoke filling the vehicle. It felt like it was only three seconds before he saw complete darkness...

The gang began running in all directions searching for ways to get out of the building uncaught. It was only seconds later when it seemed like an army of uniformed men stormed the place, but it was immediately clear that the gang wasn’t going down without a fight. Bullets flew in every direction and it was difficult for Kaiden to figure out the difference between good and the bad. But, he did know enough to try to keep his squad safe. Kaiden shouted to stay down and stay silent. But it wasn’t long before Tyler began to feel heat running up the right side of his body. Then the world went dark…

What was going on? Where was everyone? Tyler heard nothing but instantly smelled his mother’s famous chocolate chip pancakes. Now he could hear his mom shouting to come downstairs. Where was he? Was it all a dream?
