The main argument in this piece is that Black English is termed as its' own distinct language, white English or dissimilar to American. Black English is not simply a dialect of English but its' own language.
Language is a way of expressing yourself, as well as in Black English does exactly the same way, by expressing the kind of lives that black people had lived.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

Franz Kafka wrote the metamorphosis at first because he felt the need to express the confrontation of man with the oppression of a modern world (At that time it was the outbreak of the First World War), and as such the history of metamorphosis originated as a story about the unbearable weight of responsibility he had to express that feeling.

Explanation:

Franz Kafka was a writer born in Prague, his works and writings were influential in existentialism, the philosophy of the absurd and other literary currents.
