Read the excerpt from Notes of a Native Son. It had something to do with his blackness, I think—he was very black—with his black

ness and his beauty, and with the fact that he knew that he was black but did not know that he was beautiful. He claimed to be proud of his blackness but it had also been the cause of much humiliation and it had fixed bleak boundaries to his life. What does the excerpt tell readers about racial prejudice in early 20th-century America?

alukav5142 [94]

The document by William Bradford, where he tells the story about john Howland was a journal of his life, where Bradford describes the story of the Pilgrims from 1608.

The chapter begins with Bradford referring to the resolution of some troubles. The boat the Separatists had set out from England on, the Speedwell, had developed leaks, so the passengers transferred to the Mayflower, which was a cargo ship. This was uncomfortable fit for the people on board.

the intention of the author was to show everyone the life conditions Pilgrims had at that time, feel free to take advantage of that to explain and deep dive in the intention of the book.
