Answer:

The oppression and segregation imposed upon African Americans.

Explanation:

In his letter to President Dwight D. Eisenhower dated May 13, 1958, Jack Roosevelt Robinson wrote of how it is hard for them to "<em>have self-respect and remain patient</em>". He admits that considering the "treatment" that his people, the African Americans in America have experienced and gone through, he believes it is hard for them to be patient and have "self-respect".

Jackie Robinson was a professional baseball player who played in the Major League Baseball (MLB). His letter to the then president shows his impatience against the former's interest regarding the cause of the Black community. Robinson would alter on become a huge propagator for the civil rights movement and be involved in the fight for the rights of the black people. By admitting that the president's advise to be patient and have self control can no longer be enough to calm the unrest that is evidently arising out of the oppression and racial segregation that his people had experienced and made to endure.

In "I, Too" and "Dream Variations," which details most clearly represent equality for African Americans?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

A seat at the table and the freedom to dance

Explanation:

In "I, Too," by Langston Hughes, the poet compares the fair brother representing White Americans and the darker brother representing African Americans. The fair brother denies his brother a sit at the table and sends him to the kitchen. This highlights the inequality that African Americans face. The darker brother, however, rejoices in the hope that he would gain equality someday by sitting at the table and nobody will dare send him to the kitchen again.

In "Dream Variations", Hughes likens equality to a time when he gains freedom to dance, whirl, and rest after a white day (symbolizing the cruelty of racial discrimination by their White counterparts) is gone.
