The Pardoner accumulated his wealth by selling pardons, or promises of salvation. People would do bad things, and then maybe regret it because they fear the wrath of God and not being able to go to heaven after they die, so they go to the Pardoner to buy these pardons which erase their sins. Although this has indeed been done in reality, soon it became illegal and outlawed, so the Pardoner was basically a criminal who took people's last penny just so he could become rich himself. It is quite ironic, given that he is a sort of a priest, and chooses to be vile himself.

Answer:
D The second speaker disagrees with the first speaker and explains the history of those people who have been treated unfairly in America.
Explanation:
"Let America be America Again" is a poem written by Langston Hughes, where he explains how the American dream, the illusion of a just, strong and united America is a lie as many people are exploited, oppressed and limited.
The first speaker of the poem shows that America is indeed a land of possibilities and happiness, but that this is not available to him. The second speaker disagrees with this, and asserts that America has never been such a happy land, as countless people have been treated unfairly from the very beginnings of the country. He reinforces that America was never that dream of freedom, but that he and all the wronged will fight for it to become a real good land, for everyone.
