<span>Long after the world to which it belonged has vanished, a habit of thought will live on, indelibly imprinted upon a race or nation, like the footprint of some extinct beast or bird upon a piece of stone.
The word indelibly refers to the anything that is impossible to remove or forget. It is the mark that cannot be erased.</span>
Answer:
I was wrong, the answer is B for all future readers
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
The tone presented by Douglass in his speech "What to the Slave is the Fourth of July," is forceful and angry.
Douglass expressed his anger on the celebration of American independence in which African-Americans still lived in bond as slaves. A country where not every citizen enjoys equality, justice, and freedom.
By using the rhetorical question, Douglass is conveying his grief for being called to speak something about American independence day, whereas his fellow brothers and sisters are in slavery.
Therefore, the tone of the excerpt is angry and forceful. Thus option B is correct.
