What type of affect was intended to occur with the use of term "boesman" towards colored South Africans?

English

Nina [5.8K]3 years ago

Answer:

<u>meant to intimidate colored South Africans</u>

Explanation:

We can make this conclusion because the text explains further the reasons for the use of such a phrase. Trevor Noah stated<em>,</em>

<em>"The most common colored slur was boesman...Because it called out their blackness, their primitiveness. The worst way to insult a colored person was to infer that they were in some way black."</em>

Because colored South Africans were born from parents of two different races, (one parent is black the other white) the phrase was used to create an intimidating effect in the minds of those affected.

What text evidence can readers use to infer that the last firebrand belongs to Nou, even before his name is called? Use at least
Paul [167]

Answer:

There are two sections of the story that lend credence to the fact that Nous firebrand was the last one to be thrown during the Chief's visit.

  1. The third sentence in the third paragraph indicates that they took turns and that Nous turn came last because, after Nous turn, there was no other mention of any other throw.  This means that all the other older warriors that thrown their flames before Nou.
  2. The third and fourth sentences in paragraph 4 state that everyone was happy except the older fire throwers because Nou had made them look weak and foolish.

This corroborates the evidence from the third paragraph that they had thrown their fires first and Nous fire went last.

Cheers!
