The Emancipation Proclamation was dubbed as a great beacon of hope because it freed black men and women from slavery. The Emancipation Proclamation was a monumentous document that came into effect on January 1 1863 and which essentially declared "that all persons held as slaves are, and henceforward shall be free".

Could someone write a 5 paragraph essay on how: The death of a loved one affects youth?
devlian [24]
I will not write an essay, but I am going to help you out, (you can use my example) The death of a loved one affects youth because they can make the child depressed, lonely, confused, rejection, and experience a big wall in front of them, and they're not sure how to deal with it since they're so young this death of a loved one can be family, friends, partners. Dealing with any of these is hard I can speak on my behalf for my mom’s brother passed away when I was little he was shot in a hit-and-run while he was working. He died on my birthday and ever since it’s hard for my mom since she has to pretend to be happy while being sad it’s very tragic since he died when I was 6 ever since I have always been sad and felt it was my fault he died, and I’ve become closer in my family tree with death and the true ugliness of the after effects

What was the eye opening experience that Katniss had years back when she eyed a dandelion at the school yard?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The eye opening experience that Katniss has, after seeing the Dandelion, is that there is still hope, and that her family has a future, even though her father has died, her mother is in a deep depression and she has a younger sister to feed.  Bear in mind, that her family was starving to death(literally) her father (the source of money in the family) had just died, her mother was deeply depressed and unable to be a mother, so Katniss had to become the responsible adult in the family, even when she was only a teenager.

Specifically, <u>the Dandelion makes Katniss realize that she can go to the woods to collect edible plants (like dandelions) and then she starts hunting and she learns how to use a bow expertly, skill that will saver her life in the hunger games. </u>

Later on, Peeta becomes the symbol of the dandelion. (Spoiler alert) She ends up saying that what she needs in her life is <em>"the dandelion on the spring, the bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction,the promise that life can go on no matter how bad our losses". </em>
