Hi!

The author's purpose is t<u>o show examples of reasons books have been banned</u>.

You can see the author's purpose in <u>how he starts the passage</u>.

He starts by explaining why some books have been banned, and then he goes into a detailed example that reinforces this idea.

Therefore, we can conclude that the author was trying to <u>show examples of reasons why books have been banned</u>.

In this question, we cannot provide evidence from "assigned materials," as you did not tell us what materials these are. However, we are still able to discuss the rest of the question:

We are required to compare historical themes, concepts or patterns with current critical social justice issues. These three statements compare such themes:

  • The historical abolitionist movement fought for the right of Black people to have freedom, in the same way as white people did. They relied on the idea that both races are equal, and this is still the motivating force behind movements such as "Black Lives Matter."
  • The feminist movement has faced many battles in the past, including that of achieving women's suffrage. The feminist movement nowadays continues to fight, particularly in the area of sexual abuse and harassment.
  • The "green" movement of the present that wants to prepare for the threat of climate change is similar in many ways to the Native American movements of the past that focused on protecting the environment.
