zysi [14]

Most MLK Jr's rhetoric was about equality, (<em>recognition and affirmation</em>), stating that every american must work for racial equality and claiming that African Americans should be granted equal rights, but acknowledging that civil rights alone would not solve the income inequality issue created by the prior oppression, implying that African Americans will be free when they could have economic equality and equality of opportunities.

In “Your Laughter,” the symbol of the blue flower expresses the speaker’s _____.
cluponka [151]

Answer: I do not know if this is a multiple choice question or not, but I would contend that the blue flower is a reference to Neruda's country, Chile.

Explanation: The color blue is part of the flag of Chile. It symbolises, in part, the Pacific Ocean, and I believe that in these lines of his famous poem, the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda was referring to his beloved country, which he had had to abandon due to his political views. He is telling his lover that he wants her laughter like the flower he was waiting for, "the blue flower, the rose of my echoing country." He cannot have his country, but his lover's laughter will bring him the comfort that he needs in these difficult days away from his homeland.
