Image result for what is the theme of the poem "America" by Claude McKay?

McKay's poem “America” provides insight not only into his own thoughts on America and American racism, but also those of most blacks living in Harlem in the 1920s. “America,” though not written in dialect, has an obvious voice. McKay is not careful when describing the pitfalls of American society

Answer:

The theme of the poem is don't give up hope or fight through the problem. In the poem he says "she steals my breath of life, I will confess i love this cultured hell that tests my youth." Giving through life as an African American is hard I will work hard to make it better is what I think that he is trying to say.

Answer: The correct answer is: [D]:

__________________________________________

" {"By silver reeds in a silver stream," .}.

__________________________________________

Explanation:

Alliteration refers to the repetition —and/or nearby— beginning symbol consonant sounds; or, for that matter, beginning vowel sounds.

Refer to:

Choice D]: "{" By silver reeds in a silver stream," .}.

_____________________________________________

Note the repetition in succession — and nearby — beginning "consonant sounds" from this line of the poem— [specifically, the "ess sound"].

_____________________________________________

Note that choice [C]: "Walks the night in her silver shoon" ;

→ is Not the best — or correct — answer— {since the beginning consonant sounds of:

"silver" ; and: "shoon" ; are in fact "different" from each other.}.

_____________________________________________

What was some of the opportunities cost associated with not invading Iraq?

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Though Saddam Hussein did not use weapons of mass destruction nor set fire to Iraq's oil fields nor attack Israel with rockets, and though the conflict was relatively short, the war has had many serious results ranging from death and destruction in Iraq to regional instability to a weakened world economy.

Explanation:

The war added more than $1 trillion to the U.S. debt, which included increases to the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Veterans Administration (VA) base budgets. The DoD base budget grew by $193 billion during the Iraq War; and the VA budget expanded by $47.7 billion.

Iraq War profiteers

One of the top profiteers from the Iraq War was oil field services corporation, Halliburton. Halliburton gained $39.5 billion in "federal contracts related to the Iraq war". Many individuals have asserted that there were profit motives for the Bush-Cheney administration to invade Iraq in 2003.

Why did the Auld's have different perspectives about Frederick learning how to read?

denis-greek [22]

This question refers to the text "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass."

In this text, Douglass tells us that his masters, Mr. and Mrs. Auld, had different ideas about slaves learning how to read. This was a consequence of the fact that they had different ideas about the value and the place of a slave.

On the one hand, Mrs. Auld is a kind woman who believes slaves can better themselves. She is initially interested in teaching Douglass how to read and write. However, Mr. Auld disagrees with her beliefs, and forbids her to teach the slaves how to read and write. Moreover, he convinces her that the best way to treat slaves is to be cruel and unkind. Such ideas change Mrs. Auld and turn her into a cold, unsympathetic woman.
