In the document "Ain't I A Woman" I infer that time during that period for african american women was not equal compared to the whites. As a matter of fact in the document the author Sojourner Truth tells us " he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause Christ wasn't a woman! Where did your Christ come from? Where did your Christ come from? From God and a woman!". This is such a powerful sentence to me because I agree. Not only was she black, but she was a woman and yet she could still do as much as any man could. Yet she is treated unfair because she was a woman. This document shows that in the 19th century there was racism, and neglected rights toward black men and women.
Paragraph two
<span>The mood of this story is quite confusing. I really felt sad and terrible for Louise knowing that not only is she ill but her husband died. Then through out the story she starts to react differently. She starts to scream "free" and "Free! Body and soul free!". Then I started to realize that she was not sad but happy that her husband was gone and she could live her "long" life free. Yet very tragically and ironic she gets a visit from her undead husband and has a heart attack and dies. What I can infer from this story is that in that time period women had more rights. She was saying that she was free and day dreaming of the days she could have now. </span>
Paragraph three
<span>Both of these stories are from a woman's point of view. There was the same message coming from both authors and that was the woman's right to be equal or to be "free". In "Ain't I A Woman" the author wants her rights! In her tone she is demanding to be heard and to inform the audience that she deserves to do as much as any other person man or white. While in "The Story of an Hour" the author tells us a story of a woman who wants to be "Free" and live her life with no one to oppress her. I think women felt trapped and restricted and just wanted to be free.</span>
I'm not sure about the rest but I'm pretty sure images belongs to "transforms theme into pictures"
Answer and Explanation:
Based on Nikki Giovanni's poem, we can consider that she has a style that likes to combine complex literary resources in a simple and objective structure. This shows that her texts have an easy appearance, but contain deep and even complex meanings through the constant use of difficult and meaningful resources and elements. This can be seen in "A Poem for My Librarian, Mrs. Long" where the author presents a poem with strong meaning, with many complex literary elements, but in a simple poem with free verses.
There would be:
- panic
- unrest
- tightened security
- food and water begin to be rationed
- every family for themselves
- suspicion (could your friend, family member, neighbor etc be a spy?)
I hope this helped, let me know in the comments
