The professor responded in this way, as he felt disrespected by Westover's question and did not like the situation.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Westover asked a question about the Holocaust, stating that he didn't know what it meant.
  • As the holocaust was a highly known event today and that it caused great suffering to the Jews, being one of humanity's worst moments, the professor thought she was making fun of the class and the holocaust itself.
  • The teacher felt disrespected and lubricated so he replied "Thanks for that," angrily.

Westover didn't really know what the holocaust was, as she was raised with no access to any information, so she asked the meaning of the word, but no one in the class knew about it.

One of the many subjects in Kindred deals with an imbalance of power. The patroller clearly
Law Incorporation [45]

The patroller tearing off the blanket shows the power white men had over black people and the power men had over women.

Kindred is a story that focuses on the situation of black people during the Antellebelum period, which is known due to its extensive use of slavery. This issue is explored by Dana who is a modern woman that time travels to this period.

In this story, it is clear there are defined power relationships, the most common include:

  • White people but especially men control black people.
  • Men control women.

These power imbalances are shown in multiple situations, this includes one occasion, in which a patrol (white man) removes the blanket from Alice (a black woman) in order to humiliate her and show his power over her.

Player piano why do all the men gather around the great oak
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

All the men gathered around the great oak because it served as a symbol of Ilium Works and they did it in order to sing the anthem entitled, "Love's Sweet Song."

Explanation:

The question is related to the novel entitled, "Player Piano," which was written by<em> Kurt Vonnegut</em>. It centers on the story of a futuristic society where widespread mechanization flourished.

Ilium Works is a company which owns a <em>green island</em> called "The Meadows,." This served as a location for <u>company retreats.</u> In the island is an oak tree, which is said to be a classical symbol of Golden Age.

However, <u><em>the oak is also a symbol of the company.</em></u> The purpose of the company retreat is to allow the people to get back to nature. However, this sounds ironic because <u>it contradicts the order of company loyalty in Ilium Works.</u>
