Monuments are built by artists in order to remind us of important moments in the history of humanity.In the case of "Always to Remember " it is a feeling which is meant to be remembered .This is the reason why the Memorial  and the essay written about it are  so heart- rending.

War is tough .The Vietnam Veterans Memorial is. Being part of a war fought far from home became something hard to tolerate for several Americans.They could not cope with the idea of violence towards innocents so when soldiers who had fought in Vietnam returned they were rejected by most of the American society.All the feelings, those of rejection, of love for one´s nation, or depression and frustration are shown in the monument as well as in the essay.

The long list of soldiers who lost their lives in a remote place ,all written on black stone ,moves every single soul in front of it as we see loss and resignation in the monument.Maya Lin expressed herself as a representative of those who were meant to be helped by all the armed forces who moved to Vietnam to fight so as to defend a land from the darkness of ideas so contrary to liberty.

The American flag , always so magnificently flapping in the wind , gives the memorial the support the soldiers need.A nation of peace makers might not understand a soldier.A nation with the spirit of a hero as the USA is , sympathises with the dead on a country that needed saving.

Frustration and anger are exposed also by the use of black walls involving the visitors of the Memorial.You feel trapped and covered by an emotion hard to describe; you sense something dark.The sensation may involve regret for being socruel to those who had fought that war, for dividing the country and for the lack of sympathy.

Finally, the sensitivity in the Memorial as well as in the essay is presented not just by the names on the monument or the words in the composition.Actually ,the most moving about both is the reason why they were created; suffering, grief and deprivation.

Which piece of evidence explains the cause of the publishing industry being mostly white?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The question is from the newsela article, <em>"Missteps lead publishing industry to review  diversity effort."</em>

The answers are:

  1. (A) The latest results showed the industry is around 75 percent white and mostly female.
  2. (C) Cummins is not of Mexican heritage but visited the country and migrant shelters along the border for book research. In a New York Times op-ed in 2016, she wrote, "My family is mostly white." She has one Puerto Rican grandparent.
  3. (B) to demonstrate the effectiveness of a diversity program aimed at increasing diversity in publishing.
  4. (C) She would disagree and note the changes she has observed since beginning her career.

Explanation:

  1. The information, "<em>The children's book publisher Lee & Low released a survey of people who work in publishing. The  latest results showed the industry is around 75 percent white and mostly female." </em>conveys that empirical data supports the claim that the publishing industry is mostly white.
  2. In the introductory paragraph, the major concern of the critics is conveyed in the line, "Critics of "American Dirt" claim its  story makes mistakes in describing Mexican life and culture. The misrepresentation of Mexican culture in<em> "American Dirt" </em>can be accredited to the facts that Cummins is neither Mexican nor was the cultural research adequate.  
  3. Michaela T. Glover is one of the interns at the United Negro College  Fund internship program. The lines,<em> "The organization WeNeedDiverseBooks works with  publishers and agents to recruit interns. The program began with five interns in 2015 and will  likely place 15-20 this summer. Out of 44 interns, 39 have since graduated from college and 30  have found full-time work in publishing, according to the organization. " </em>convey that the program is working to diversify the publishing industry.
  4. Tracy Sherrod conveys her publishing experience in the lines, "I first came into publishing in the 1980s and at that time it was believed that black people didn't  read. That statement was made to me multiple times, so we've come a long way," she said. "We're  growing as an industry, but there will be some growing pains." Tracy Sherrod believes that the industry is growing.
