Which sentences in the excerpt best demonstrate Zora Neale Hurston’s opinion that it is necessary to publish stories about avera

ge African Americans as well as those who are considered extraordinary?
((((The realistic story around a Negro insurance official, dentist, general practitioner, undertaker and the like would be most revealing)))). ((((Thinly disguised fiction around the well known Negro names is not the answer, either)))). The "exceptional" as well as the Ol' Man Rivers has been exploited all out of context already. ((((Everybody is already resigned to the "exceptional" Negro, and willing to be entertained by the "quaint."…))))

It is inevitable that this knowledge will destroy many illusions and romantic traditions which America probably likes to have around. ((((But then, we have no record of anybody sinking into a lingering death on finding out that there was no Santa Claus. The old world will take it in its stride)))). ((((The realization that Negroes are no better nor no worse, and at times just as bonny as everybody else, will hardly kill off the population of the nation.))))

Answer:

  • The realistic story around a Negro insurance official, dentist, general practitioner, undertaker and the like would be most revealing.
  • The realization that Negroes are no better nor no worse, and at times just as bonny as everybody else, will hardly kill off the population of the nation.

In this excerpt, Zora Neale Hurston discusses the importance of telling the stories of average African Americans. She argues that the stories that are told of this population always center on those of extraordinary people. These, she argues, are entertaining and familiar. However, the stories of common people are the most revealing. They are the ones that will prove that African Americans are just as human as everybody else.

Is this sentence a opinion or a fact<br> "There seems to be too much testing in public schools"
Veronika [31]
Opinion!

you can absolutely think there’s too much of that, but there isn’t a set number of the correct amount of testing, so it can’t be a set fact that there is too much. someone a could also have the opinion that there’s too little testing.
