Read the excerpt from Warriors Don't Cry."Then you don't have anything to be concerned about." Mother Lois maneuvered through th
e unusually heavy traffic. "I don't know where all the cars could have come from," she said. We both craned our necks, curious about all the unfamiliar cars and people. Certainly there had never before been so many white people driving down the streets of our quiet, tree-lined neighborhood.What idea is emphasized through repetition?
"Warriors Don't Cry" by Melba Pattillo Beals is an autobiographical account of the Civil war and the anti racism movement of which she was a huge part. She along with some black men and women, displayed extreme courage and dedication to bring about change during the most turbulent of times in American history.
The given excerpt from the text shows a great deal of repetition where Beals talked of how many cars and traffic was there, with the "unusual" number of whites too. This repetition laid emphasis on the "unusually" crowded streets which never used to be before. This also led the narrator to fear but also at the same time, be aware of the changes that she and the the blacks had to endure.
Making decisions is very important. Decision making can lead to pros and cons. For instance, if you make a bad decision then it could affect you in the long run. All words by me.
