Question

Reread paragraph 14 from Baker's speech. What can be inferred from this paragraph?

Answer 1

Answer:

“SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON”

C. Baker believes speaking out against injustice is effective.

Explanation:

In her 1963 “SPEECH AT THE MARCH ON WASHINGTON,” Josephine Baker said "They were mad because I told the truth."  But, speaking out against injustice is effective.  It yields the desired outcome if not in one's lifetime, in the lifetime of one's children and grandchildren.  Injustice should never be stomached by any human being.  According to Baker, you do not need gun to fight injustice, use pen instead.

Josephine Baker was an American-born French entertainer, who fled the US amidst unmitigated racial discrimination and segregation.  She went to Paris, France where she became an instant success, gaining an opportunity that was denied her in her native country.
