Answer:

Explanation:

They smell your mouth

Lest you've told someone 'I love you.'

They smell your heart

             These are strange times, my dear

Love,

they drag out under lampposts

to thrash.

        Love must be hid in closets at home.

In the cold of this blind alley

They keep their fires ablaze

      burning our anthems and poems.

Do not venture to think.

           These are strange times, my dear

He who pounds on the door in the nighttime

Has come to kill the light.

          Light must be hid in closets at home.

Lo! the butchers

stationed on roads

with chopping-board and cleaver soaked in blood

            These are strange times, my dear

They slit smiles off of lips

And song from the throat.

         Joy must be hid in closets at home.

Canaries are being roasted

on a spit of lilacs and jasmine

        These are strange times, my dear

Satan, triumph-drunk

Feasts at a table spread with our mourning

     God must be hid in closets at home.

Ronch [10]

The correct answer is C) Harlem Renaissance

Between 1920 and 1940, the quest for racial equality and a search for self-identity among African-Americans inspired the  Harlem Renaissance, an upsurge of creative expression in the arts, centered in a part of Manhattan occupied largely by African-Americans.

Many historians consider the Harlem Renaissance as a folden age in the culture of black people in the United States for the many kinds of artistic expressions that surged in music and literature. Many African Americans that lived in the South migrated to the North of the country.

Among the most important figures of this period, we can name writer Langston Hughes, writer Zorah Neale Hurston, poet Countee Cullen, and musician Louis Armstrong.

What kind of rhetoric is Anthony most clearly using in the passage ?
ryzh [129]

Answer: It is apparent that Anthony's goal was to show women's side of things: that it is impossible to enjoy these blessings of liberty while unable to fully use them; that women experience a hateful prejudice based on gender rather than work ability or skill; and that ultimately, as United States citizens, women should not be denied the right to vote, because it is defined in the very word. And there can be no doubt that Anthony achieved this goal. Not only is her speech extraordinary, but she was the first woman to be pictured on a United States coin, and is known to this day as one of the most influential people of the Progressive Era. She raised awareness of this injustice through her speeches, inspiring others to protest. She died ten years before the law was changed, but her words and actions continue to affect present-day America. Ultimately, the beliefs she fought for far outweighed the $100 fine she was given for voting in 1872, which she never paid.
