B.“But losing her had, I suppose, made him realize for the first time how much he loved her, and this sudden strength — focus, certainty, whatever — was a comfort”
Explanation:
In this short story by George Saunders, the main character Uncle Matt is shown to be crude, materialistic and with no emotional connection maintained throughout his course of life.
With his actions and attributes, he seems to have a negligence over his children. In the story's start, Saunders describes his actions and thoughts clearly for readers to understand that he does not really have a genuine concern over children well-being.
It is a surprising truth for readers to digest when he suddenly turns into an emotional father during the mishap. When he starts to understand his responsibility and how caring his children were towards him, in spite of his attitude towards them and their lives, he realizes that he must act differently, in a more concerned and responsible way to get her back.
The concept that Abraham is demonstrating is Code switching. Code switching involves adjusting one's style of speech, appearance, behavior, or expression in ways that will optimize the comfort of others in exchange for fair treatment, quality service, and employment opportunities.
Simply put, code switching when someone changes their language based on who they are with, typically to fit in better with a different group.
HE meant if freedom is for America then why isnt a black man? A African American is in apart of America than why isnt he free like the rest?
he originally gave the speech to the Ladies' Anti-Slavery Society in Rochester, New York
here is a summary of the speech:
<span>While still a young slave in Maryland, Frederick Douglass taught
himself to read, whereupon he discovered that he was as capable of
thinking and reasoning as any free man, and therefore ought to be free.
Upon making good his escape to New York, Douglass earned wide renown as
an outspoken and eloquent critic of the institution of slavery. In this
speech before a sizeable audience of New York abolitionists, Douglass
reminds them that the Fourth of July, though a day of celebration for
white Americans, was still a day of mourning for slaves and former
slaves like himself, because they were reminded of the unfulfilled
promise of equal liberty for all in the Declaration of Independence. </span>
