Walter Dean Myers, 73, spoke with his son, Christopher Myers, 36, about his efforts to make an impression on his father. Walter Dean Myers grew up in Harlem, the son of a janitor. He became an author, writing young adult fiction that's especially popular with teenage readers.

After leaving the army, Myers struggled with finding work and figuring out his purpose. ... It wasn't until Myers read the book Sonny's Blues by James Baldwin, which takes place in Harlem and focuses on African American characters, that he was inspired to start writing stories based on his own experiences growing up.

Answer:

B) Civil Rights Movement

Explanation:

Civil rights are rights that actually protect the freedom of individuals from the intrusion and infringement by governments, individuals, etc. These rights help to ensure the individual's entitlement to freedom in society and the state without discrimination.

From the excerpt, it's clear that the narrator was being discriminated. But we see she was advised to note the name of the conductor or driver. Those discriminating ones were dismissed.

We see that the historic movement in this excerpt is civil rights movement. The president gave the narrator the power to note those that are discriminating and they were dealt according. This portrays that everyone should be treated accordingly and equally and not discriminated.

I have to write an essay based on the quote "Everyone deserves a standing ovation because we all overcometh the world." Basicall
Scorpion4ik [409]
Here are a few pointers; hope this is useful)

Ovation-by definition- is show of appreciation from an audience, for a person's accomplishments or flaw.

"Everyone deserves a standing ovation because we all overcometh the world."

A person's accomplishment could be how they made a positive change in this world, strong leadership- that makes them a effective leader or simply helping others. A person's flaw- mistakes in life, sin or even guilt should also be considered an appreciation- an ovation for representing mankind's flaw and that humanity makes mistakes, fulfilling at least one deadly sin such as greed, lust, selfishness etc.

Thus, regardless of a person's achievement or flaw- a person deserves an applause for, not the least, living in this society and this world that we are all living together and dying together.

That was just the introduction.. the best part is yet to come.. now it's your turn!!

Here are other pointers to talk about in your essay:

Shakespeare's famous line "All the World's a stage. That agrees with your line: "Everybody deserves a standing ovation..."

Shakespeare explains that men and women are like players: they live, and die, some being celebrated and some forever living in solitude till their death. Shakespeare states the world is a "stage" which symbolizes that mankind is in its peak. The world is changing everyday: little by little and humanity is falling behind.
Due to our world turning into machinery: factories, an automotive future: where humans only job to live (entrance) and to die (exit) the famous humans remembered and the flawed not recalled.

This is according to Shakespeare's imagery.

I don't know what grade your in, but I think simplifying Shakespeare's word of mouth in your essay would be handy and useful as it has strong references of your quote, and agrees strongly in your essay.


Hope this helps :)
