But, to my mind, it is the duty of the younger Negro artist, if he accepts any duties at all from outsiders, to change through t

he force of his art that old whispering “I want to be white,” hidden in the aspirations of his people, to “Why should I want to be white? I am a Negro—and beautiful”? In this context, what is the meaning of “aspirations”?
complexities
beliefs
curiosities
ambitions

Answer:

Letter B

Explanation:

Although the general meaning of aspiration is <em>something somene aspires to be(come), </em>in this context the author didn't mean to imply that the Negro people aspired 'to become White'. This <em>old whispering</em> was more of an unsettling statement that echoed in their minds for many centuries. What they <em>believed</em> they should become in order to be better accepted in society.

Ambitions because if you were to switch the word from aspirations to ambition the meaning would be the same and the text wouldnt be changed

How does the writer present the victim as a innocent character of high standing in society? in Chapter 4 titled The Carew Murder
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Sir Danvers Carew was a notable and profoundly regarded London man of his word. He was killed close to 12 PM on a hazy, full-moon night in October. A servant saw the despicable Mr. Hyde meet "a matured and delightful respectable man with white hair" After a couple of words, "Mr. Hyde lifted his hefty strolling stick and clubbed the old respectable man to death" Police are perplexed that neither the casualty's gold watch nor his wallet was taken.

Edward Hyde, beneficiary to Jekyll's quarter of 1,000,000 pounds, lives in the " grim quarter" of London. Hyde has no family, and apparently, he was rarely shot. Hyde conveys "a frightful feeling of unexpressed distortion," according to people who have seen him. "Jekyll and Hyde" opens on a police officer's search for the man who killed a woman in London.

In night describe what moshe said happened to him and to the others
Nostrana [21]
Moishe the Beadle, who is a foreign Jew, is expelled from Sighet (which is in Hungary) and sent to Poland. There, the Gestapo takes over his train and orders Jews to get off and board trucks. They are taken to woods near the Galician forest and told to get out of the trucks and dig deep trenches. Then the Gestapo soldiers order each person to approach the trenches and bear his or her neck, and each person is shot. Babies are tossed into the air and used for target practice. Moishe is able to escape because he was shot in the leg and believed to be dead.

Moishe returns to Sighet to warn the community of the fate that awaits them so that they can prepare. He says, "I wanted to return to Sighet to describe to you my death so that you might ready yourselves while there is still time" (page 7). However, no one in Sighet believes him, and they think he is insane. They do not heed his warning.

Has anyone ever read "The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett. If so can you help me? QUESTION IN DETAILS
marissa [1.9K]
I have! It's one of my favorite books. I'd say the theme is centered around the saying, "home is where the heart is." and plays on the magic of childhood. In Mr. Craven, his stern brother, and Mary’s parents, readers have found evidence of a failed and fallen adult world. When Mary first arrives at <span>Misselthwaite in winter, she's spoiled rotten and downright rude. But she begins to garden. And when her flowers sprout in the spring, so does Mary's heart of gold. Hope that helps you! </span>
