The correct answer is option B "accurately depict the African American experience". Langston Hughes the author of "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain", is considered a writer that introduced jazz in much of his poetry. In Hughes own words, he wrote so many jazz poems because "jazz to me is one of the inherent expressions of Negro life in America" (1512).

Answer:

B. Accurately depict the African American experience

Explanation:

In his short essay <em>The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain</em>, Langston Hughes promotes the belief that African-American art has its distinctiveness and therefore, Negros should embrace it and be proud of who they are and where they come from, instead of copying the white culture and its characteristics, an action that he harshly criticized. In this distinctiveness that Hughes mentions, jazz is one of them, as it accurately describes the African American experience fill with revolts, joy, work, smile and city life, as he wrote:

<em>But jazz to me is one of the inherent expressions of Negro life in America; the eternal tom-tom beating in the Negro soul--the tom-tom of revolt against weariness in a white world, a world of subway trains, and work, work, work; the tom-tom of joy and laughter, and pain swallowed in a smile.</em>

Answer:

It suggests that she did not care about his death.

Explanation:

Mrs. Wright, a character in the play <em>Trifles, </em>kills her husband because of her loneliness. The police and her neighbors come to her house to investigate. Mrs. Hale, when asked about how Mrs. Wright behaved, says that she laughed after killing her husband.

It would seem based on this that Mrs. Wright didn't feel anything bad about her husband's death. She experienced severe loneliness and depression in her small-town, rural life, that she didn't see another escape other than murdering her own husband. Even though the husband did not treat her badly, per se, she still felt the need to get rid of him and regain her freedom.
