How is the rivalry between Odessa and Permian representative of the racial divisions within the greater Odessa community?

English
1 answer:
Zolol [24]3 years ago
5 0

The rivalry between Odessa and Premian is representative of the racial divisions within the greater Odessa community because when, in the 60's, Permian High was formed, on the east side of the town, it drew families away from Odessa High.

Odessa, which was until that moment the football powerhouse in the region, became a largely Latino district with a mediocre football team.

Permian was accused by members of the Odessa High of redrawing football boundaries to ensure that, if that black students were going to come to Permian, they would be black students capable of improving the football team.

The conflict was basically founded on ethnic, racial issues. Black and Latino population were denigrated and thought not to be good enough for big time Texas football.

Explain the irony of Mrs Bamjee' arrest by two coloured policemen​
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The irony in the arrest of Mrs. Bamjee is that she was working to help the colored people to be free from the racially discriminatory system of Apartheid but was arrested by two colored policemen, the very section of people she was working to help.

Explanation:

Irony is when something that is expected did not happen or occur but the opposite instead happens. This rhetorical device is used to show an event that occurs contradictory to the expected or desired.

In Nadine Gordimer's short story "A Chip of Glass Ruby", Mrs. Bamjee is of Indian descend, but believed in the importance and need to protest against the government's Apartheid policy. To her, the blacks are discriminated against by the whites and she needed to do her bit to help those suffering. So, she did whatever she could to highlight and spread the monstrosity of the discriminatory nature of the Apartheid policy. Ironically, she was arrested by two colored policemen, the very race or group of people she was trying to help.
