My impression of Eddy Harris’s writing, was fascinating.
Early in his address, Obama addresses the problems that currently face America: "For the American people can no more meet the demands of today's world by acting alone than American soldiers could have met the forces of fascism or communism with muskets and militias. No single person can train all the math and science teachers we'll need to equip our children for the future, or build the roads and networks and research labs that will bring new jobs and businesses to our shores. Now, more than ever, we must do these things together, as one nation and one people. This generation of Americans has been tested by crises that steeled our resolve and proved our resilience. A decade of war is now ending. An economic recovery has begun."

3. Billy Jo was dejected, despondent, and sorrowful.
2. Billy Jo was in a bad state of mind because;
a. She had lost her mother and her unborn sibling in the home accident
b. Her father was consumed in mourning that he neglected her.
1. Billy Jo was as sad as night. Just as night is most times marked with uncertainties, dangerous events, and a foreboding of gloom, so did Billy Jo feel after the awful accident that took her mother's life.
Explanation:
In the story, 'Out of the dust', we learn of 14-year-old Billy Jo Kelby who lived happily with her parents in their home in the Dust Bowl. An awful accident occurred in their kitchen when Billy's mother wanted to put off the stove but unfortunately uses the pail of kerosene which her husband put by the stove, mistaking it for water. Fire guts the house but she manages to escape.
However, that was not to be the end of the matter as Billy threw the pail of kerosene out of the house and it, unfortunately, hit her mother who was now gutted in the fire. Billy Jo's pregnant mother died from the incident and that made her very sad.
