Why do you think the speakers sassines will upset others still i rise​

English

Yuri [45]3 years ago

Answer:

Because Angelou´s self-confidence and her feisty approach to life might seem like not good qualities for a black woman in the eyes of those who are racist and/or against the human rights of women and African Americans.  

Explanation:

Maya Angelou´s poem titled "Still I Rise" is an ode to the resilience of those who suffer oppression. Angelou was a civil rights activist whose poetry often referred to blackness and black womanhood, so it´s likely that this poem is a critique of anti-black racism.

When she asks if her sassiness might upset some people, she uses irony to reflect her disdain for what the white man thinks of her. She repeatedly describes herself as behaving like someone with lots of money and power would, and since she´s a black woman, she knows there are people who won´t like that. So her question is actually a provocation: she couldn´t care less about offending that kind of people.

Write an argument about whether it's better to volunteer with an environmental group in your community or a national group. (100
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Volunteering is a perfect opportunity to gain certain work experience which can significantly influence one's future. When we help others, it increases our self-esteem and makes us satisfied. Whether one is going to volunteer in his/her own community or in a national group depends on his/her preferences.

It could be argued that it is better to volunteer for an environmental group in your community. First of all, volunteering in one's own community is time-saving, because you do not have to travel to work every day. A person has more free time for the other activities that he/she wants to participate in. Moreover, it is quite fulfilling to do something useful for your own community and since you spend a lot of your time there, you are likely to notice the changes in the environment and results of your work.
