Answer:

<em>'He is the same colour </em><em>as </em><em>the earth, and a great deal less interesting to look at.'</em>

Explanation:

George Orwell uses Simile, a figurative language device that compares two things using the adverbs like or as.

When describing the people working on the land he refers to them as the unvisible part of a (beautiful) visible landscape. This is a very subtle way of critisizing the British Empire that ignores (they don´t see them) the working people who, seen by Orwell, are doing important work.

Summary of transcript of full joseph mcneil interview
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The interview begins with Joseph McNeil introducing himself. In addition to revealing his name and age, he reveals where he was born and what year he was born. Then he says he believed he was always an activist, probably because of the creation he received from his country, which was a creation based on fundamental values, which generated a strong sense of justice in his life, from an early age. This sense of justice motivated him to fight for what is wrong in society and to always seek the dignity of humanity.

Explanation:

Joseph McNeil is an African American who served in the American Air Force as a major, currently retired, is known to be a strong activist for the African American cause, having participated in the group that effectively protested about trade racism that refused to hire African Americans (and other ethnicities) non-white), without assessing their capacities and using immoral, prejudiced and racist concepts as justifications.
