The poem "Knock Knock", written by Daniel Beaty, is a poem written about the relation between a father and his son, and how the son, being too young, does not understand why his father has suddenly stopped visiting him.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The poem expresses various emotions that a son, now grown up, felt when he missed his father during the growing years of his life.

The poet remembers the days his father used to knock on his bedroom door to wake him up and had suddenly stopped, as his father was imprisoned, which a young boy the poet did not understand how and why the father was imprisoned.

Eventually, as a grown-up man, the poet imagines a letter written to him by his father, expressing why he had been absent in the past years, how he too missed and wanted to be with him.

The letter further goes on to explain to the poet that even though he was not around, there was a little part him alive in his son, who needs to grow up and make sure to make different choices than his father and be around his son and make sure that the same does not prevail with him.

Thus, the lines in the poem depict the message that the father is giving to his son through the imaginary letter.

State responses similar to those discussed in the source are an example of what historical development of the 19th and 20th
KonstantinChe [14]

In the late 19th century, between roughly 1875 and 1900, a handful of European nations conquered most of Africa. Since this came after more than three centuries of relatively cooperative trading activity between Europeans and Africans, it represents a significant departure in world history. This "Age of Imperialism" also had long-range consequences including the spread of European languages around the globe, the creation of borders that sparked many subsequent conflicts, and the construction of institutions that made globalization possible. As a consequence, this course begins with an examination of European and African societies in the 19th century in order to determine why Europeans chose to invade Africa in the late 19th century.

EUROPEAN SELF-IMAGE<span>By the mid-19th century, Europe had undergone major changes that affected their beliefs about themselves. In his book A Generation of Materialism, 1871-1900 (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1941), Carlton J. H. Hayes listed the following major developments in Europe:<span>the French Revolution introduced the idea of the nation-state as an organizing concept for politics, and the Napoleonic Wars showed the strength of the nation-statethe rise of Liberalism supported a belief in progress and changethe Industrial Revolution changed how people worked and acquired goods, the number of goods in circulation, and economic relationship between industrialized and non-industrialized regions of the worldart and religion adapted to the new emphasis on materialismnew techniques for communication and organization gave rise to the concept of "the masses" as a political and economic force</span>Carrington went on to say that these changes led to the "resurgence of economic nationalism and national imperialism." They initiated a period of intense national competition that culminated in two world wars in the 20th century. That competition, coming at the end of the 19th century, provided a direct challenge to the balance-of-power system created in 1815 to keep the peace in Europe after the Napoleonic Wars.</span>

<span>Confident in the superiority of their culture and institutions, Europeans looked for the same in the rest of the world, and related to other societies as if they existed on a continuum from "primitive" to "developed." In assigning these positions, Europeans looked especially at the level of material culture and the size of political institutions. By these criteria, northern Europeans occupied the top end of the continuum while southern Europeans, Arabs, Chinese, Native Americans and other groups occupied lower positions. Black non-Muslim Africans were near the bottom, just ahead of Australian aborigines.</span>
