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.

Rosa Parks' decision to not give up her seat is an example of a Creator mindset because she saw
erik [133]

The correct answer is True.

Explanation

Rosa Parks was an African-American activist who was noted for denying the bus seat in which she was sitting to a white man. This fact allowed the African American and civil rights movements of the United States to gain strength against racial segregation laws and to establish more equal laws for all without any distinction. This attitude of Rosa Parks during this episode demonstrates a creative mentality because at that time she was obliged by law to give up her chair, however, she saw it as an opportunity not to give it up to set a precedent for the civil rights of African Americans in the United States. According to the above, the correct answer is True, because Rosa Parks acted differently than she would be expected to act in a difficult situation.

Why was the wife of bath married 5 times in the Canterbury tales
Alex

The Wife of Bath begins her description of her two “bad” husbands. Her fourth husband, whom she married when still young, was a reveler, and he had a “paramour,” or mistress (454). Remembering her wild youth, she becomes wistful as she describes the dancing and singing in which she and her fourth husband used to indulge. Her nostalgia reminds her of how old she has become, but she says that she pays her loss of beauty no mind. She will try to be merry, for, though she has lost her “flour,” she will try to sell the “bran” that remains. Realizing that she has digressed, she returns to the story of her fourth husband. She confesses that she was his purgatory on Earth, always trying to make him jealous. He died while she was on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
