Disclaimer: This question does not include the excerpt/ text being talked about. The relevant text is:
The difference between ordinary and digital mail can be illustrated by imagining that Alice wants to send out invitations to her birthday party, and that Eve, who has not been invited, wants to know the time and place of the party. If Alice uses the traditional method of posting letters, then it is very difficult for Eve to intercept one of the invitations. . . . In comparison, Eve's task is made considerably easier if Alice sends her invitations by e-mail.
Answer: The Heart of a Woman, by Georgia Douglas Johnson (1918)
Explanation:
Along with other Harlem Renaissance poets, like Langston Hughes and Claude McKay, Georgia Douglas Johnson showed that longing for freedom is a key element of their identity. In the poem "The Heart of a Woman", Georgia reflects the experience of being an African American woman, and the pain that experience brings. Women enter "some alien cage in its plight, And tries to forget it has dreamed of the stars", she writes, reflecting the subjugation that her community, especially women, experienced.
