I believe the answer is "not credible."

I feel like he's saying, when slaves came to America, they weren't welcome to all the holidays, they were whipped instead of celebrated (on this day particularly), and then the day finally comes when they get to celebrate the Fourth of July but they can't really celebrate it because too much bad stuff happened that day. He's been saying why should anyone celebrate it when they know slavery was going on at that time. Now Douglass was an African American and this is his perspective. If you ask a Caucasian what they did that day, they will have a different story. That's what Douglass means when he says, "The story of most nations is difficult to catalogue." I hope this helps! :)
The <span>lines from "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" that most likely influenced Sandburg’s poem are the following:
"</span><span>The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes,
Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening,
Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains,"</span>
Thomas Paine was an England-born political philosopher and writer who supported revolutionary causes in America and Europe. Published in 1776 to international acclaim, “Common Sense” was the first pamphlet to advocate American independence
In his essay on the growing influence of Hispanic people on <span>American culture, Ray Suarez concludes, "We ignore them at our peril." What do you think he means? I think he means that hispanic people are quite numerous in the US and their numbers have been growing and they take jobs that WASP Americans won't do like picking grapes or housework/homecare so are becoming a growing force economically and politically.</span>
