It is the reason something exist for example if you ask what the purpose of a car is you would say its purpose is to get me from one place to another.
Answer:
Imagery in literature refers to the use of words and analogy that appeals to the five senses.
Starting with Paragraph 7, the narrator states that after her lofty dreams of America, the fact that she needs to work to pay for her next meal and rent brought her back to reality...in her own words she states <em>"I had to put my feet down on earth"</em>
Another example of imagery used can be found in paragraph 1. She calls out to America for understanding as there are many immigrants who were beating out their heart at its gates. In other words, there are many immigrants who seek to enter into America. She speaks as though America were a living being.
The act of immigration is typified by the beating of hearts at America's gates.
In paragraph 5 she speaks of <em>hidden sap of centuries that would find release -colours that never saw light. </em>
The last part of that sentence is a good use of imagery as colour and light are very visual.

I believe that MLK's dream has not completely come true in present day America. He states that "my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character". However, in recent news there was a rise of police brutality that is completely on the basis of discrimination. In order for his dream to come true, there should be no possibility of anyone, or his children, being treated differently due to skin color. I am not entirely sure if this discrimination applies to all social classes, but I know that we still have work to do in obtaining this dream.
