Answer:
it expresses the poet's feelings
Perhaps Dunbar uses the image of a mask as wearing a face allows us to conceal our face - enabling us to hide any expression or emotion.

The mask represents the false expressions the blacks had to wear.
Answer: Restate the main points, without giving out any main details.
Explanation:
While restating, you shouldn't restate your thesis, or theme. That would be simply repetitive. You also should not push your ideas forward, or, give evidence. The sentence itself should be considered a well-fit conclusion, as to not cut off your thoughts. These are every teacher's guidelines for concluding sentences of every writing type, excluding narratives.
