Question

What idea and point of view is riis expressing when he says "the children’s aid society and kindred philanthropic organizations were yet unborn,but in the city directory was to be found the address of the American society for the promotion of education in Africa "? How is this sentiment different from what tom brokaw says about the American people in the video?

Answer 1

Explanation:

In Africa, it was stated in a newspapers that an American society shall be delivering their services in Africa for the development of education system of Africa, so after this announncement it was assumed that now there were solid and practical implementation plans about this program. But, as per RIIS when he said that "the children’s aid Society and kindred plantraphits organization where yet unborn”, it reflects that there is no presence of such campaign in Africa.

This is different because in the video, Tom brokaw applauds the working of American people in the video
