Answer:

The word 'masquerade' in the poem is referred to 'pretending.'

Explanation:

The given poem is the title "Jabari Unmasked" written by Nikki Grimes during the Harlem Renaissance. The poem speaks about the issues that African Americans faced because of their color. The speaker in the poem talks about hiding his identity from the world. The speaker brings to light how the people of different color are prone to hide their true self, true identity with the fear of negative comments from the society.

The poet has used the word 'masquerade' in the poem which means 'to pretend to be someone else.' The speaker in the poem is trying to say that though they hide their true identity because of their color but they don't like to pretend to be someone else. They hate to hide their true self and true identity.

Which detail supports the belief that Antony has respect and admiration for Caesar? He pledges allegiance to Brutus after Caesar
nalin [4]

Mark Antony, the famous Roman Senator and one of the Triumvirs during the Second Triumvirate, the time of transition of Rome from Republic to Empire, was best know for two things; the first, having been the lover of Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt, after his best friend, Julius Caesar, and the second, for his deep friendship with Caesar himself. From 54 B.C, when Antony was elected as tribune, he dedicated himself to defending Julius Caesar in front of the Senate and became his greatest supporter. In fact, while Julius Ceasar was a dictator in Rome, Antony supported him and in 48 B.C, Antony became part of the Caesarean forces in the Battle of Pharsalus and also made part of the famous Republican Civil War. In 44 B.C, when Caesar assumed his fifth term as consul, Antony became co-consul. After the death of Caesar, Antony had to flee Rome dressed as a slave but came back soon after and took over responsibility over Caesar´s will. But what shows how deeply Antony respected and admired Julius Caesar was B, when Antony gives a speech to the people underlining the greatness of their fallen leader Julius Caesar.

HELP!! Please :)
Elza [17]

Explanation:

Hello !

When the author says, "Hulk is generally portrayed as what every normal human being is forced to become when pushed against the wall."

<u>The author is trying to explain the type of people we become under certain circumstances. When we feel like we have no choice, or we feel forced to do something we don't want to do, we often become something we don't want to be. We either become violent, make extremely horrible choices, or end up hurting ourselves and/or our loved ones. The author is trying to explain that Hulk feels the same way, he is often put in situations where he is forced to make an impossible decision, and just like humans, he often has to suffer the consequences as well.</u>

I hope this helps. Please feel free to let me know if you have any follow-up questions or need help, I'll be more than happy to help.

Have a wonderful night :)
