When a poet wishes to use figurative language he or she will use words that are double in meaning. The poet may use an exaggerated expression or something nonhuman, anthropomorphosize, use the figure of speeches like apostrophe, simile, hyperbole, metaphor, personification, oxymoron, and many others.
These figurative language gives style to the author, creating a more artistic figure in writing that entices reader to actually delve into and know its true identity or interpretation.
Answer:
The Welfare people made constant visits to the family home and look at them as if they are inferior to them. They also present Mrs. Little of being insane and admitted to a psychiatric hospital.
Explanation:
"The Autobiography of Malcolm X" by Malcolm X and Alex Haley was a book that details the life of Malcolm Little from his childhood till his later years. The book became one of the most read and the most sought non-fictional book of all times.
Even though it was a product of Haley's interview with Malcolm, the book was directly addressed to the readers making it easily relatable to them. In chapter I of the book, Malcolm mentions one instance when the State Welfare people used to visit their home. He remembered how they looked at them "<em>in a way that had about it the feeling-at least for me-that we were not people. In their eyesight we were just _things_, that was all</em>". He also stated "<em>acted as if they owned us, as if we were their private property</em>."
After their mother, he became the target of the Welfare people due to his stealing. They also reported to the government that their mother Mrs. Little "<em>was losing their mind</em>". All of these acts by the Welfare people made their life miserable.
The State does not continue to do so as most of the Welfare organisations/ people are more sympathetic to the cause of the welfare of the people.
