Question

2. PART B: Which TWO phrases from the text best support the

Answer 1

Hello. You forgot to say that this question is about the "Black Power" article. In addition, you forgot to say that part A showed that the central idea of the article was to increase the feeling of "black power" within the black population.

Answer:

B "Carmichael felt that blacks needed to feel a sense of racial pride and self-respect before any meaningful gains could be achieved." ( Paragraph 4)

D "Openly brandishing weapons, the Panthers decided to take control of their own neighborhoods to aid their communities and to resist police brutality." ( Paragraph 7)

Explanation:

The article shows how even with the change in the laws on civil rights and segregation, little has changed in life for blacks, as they continued to suffer severe discrimination from the population where racism was very strong and influential. As a result, some black leaders realized that they had to raise the feeling of black power in order to strongly fight white power. In addition, these leaders rejected the idea of integration and fought police violence in black neighborhoods as they could.
