Nimfa-mama [501]2 years ago
4 0

Answer and Explanation:

Prometheus was a titan who saw in human beings a lot of potential and wanted to help them, since human beings were his creation and he was very proud of what he had created. He wanted humans to dominate the land and other animals and so he gave them the ability to think and reason. When Zeus saw this, he was angry, because with reasoning, human beings would be unbeatable and dominate Zeus' creations. For this reason, to limit the autonomy of human beings, Zeus took away from them the possibility of producing fire on the earth.

Prometheus then resolved to steal fire from Olympus and give it to humans, allowing them to remain the true dominators of the land.

This story has a strong cultural significance, as the Greeks were very connected to knowledge, study and reasoning and used this story to explain the importance of thought, which made Zeus himself worried.

What was Jefferson's opinion about changing long-established governments?
Nikitich [7]
<span>“I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions. But laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors.”  -Thomas Jefferson</span>

*In Chapters 8 and 9, several characters in Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry react to acts of intimidation or harassment by white me
likoan [24]

Cassie decides not to give in to racism and confront the person who is being racist with her. Papa, on the other hand, decides to give in to racism if it's necessary to protect his family.

We were able to arrive at this answer because:

  • Papa has a great sense of responsibility to his family.
  • He recognizes that white people have greater influence and privileges in society and that this allows them to exploit and abuse black people.
  • He doesn't want his family to suffer any kind of aggression from whites and for that reason he decides to give in to racism, acting the way the whites want so that his family doesn't suffer.
  • Cassie, however, acts differently. That's because after she suffered racism from a classmate, she decided to confront, fight and threaten the girl, in addition to demanding that the girl apologize.

The ways in which the two characters acted show different aspects of how people react to racism. However, in both situations, racism appears as a very negative element.

Importantly, "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry," tells the story of a family of black farmers who need to fight racism to maintain their land and their position in society.
