Answer:

bRo gEt ouTtA hEre wIth yOur post "melon" sHirt

nah I'm kidding lol

Explanation:

"It shows the dangers of life in Harlem."

The boys drowning in the Harlem River contribute to the symbolism of fear and danger  in a community with an weird mixture of good and bad people.

In the Rockpile by James Baldwin, the neighborhood is full of perils where mothers try to keep her sons from the violence that  surrounds them nearby as well as many other hazards.

Why do you feel myths were so popular when created thousands of years ago? Why do you think that popularity still exists today?
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

They explained the unknown.

Explanation:

Myths were so popular thousands of years ago because people needed answers to the unknowns of the universe, and science could not yet give them those answers.

Today, myths are still popular because they are a type of fiction in which we can let our imaginations run wild. In much the same way as our ancestors, we enjoy fiction because of the vast amount of mysteries that still exist in the universe. Now, however, fiction is not meant to explain these unknowns, but rather to entertain because anything is possible in a multiverse.
