Answer: “The Hill We Climb” is the title of the poem by Amanda Gorman, a young African-American poet, who accompanied Joe Biden on the day of his inauguration, conquering the whole world.
1) 2020 was a particular year for the whole world and in the United States it highlighted several positive and negative aspects. Political corruption, the inefficiency of the health system, the racial hatred that still persists, the violence and senselessness that human beings can carry on. But it also highlighted the wonderful goals that humans can achieve with small daily gestures and solidarity, showing in practice the great goals that can be achieved by collaborating together. And it is precisely these positive aspects that Amanda Goram speaks about: a new beginning for America can only exist if we are the ones to free it from all negative aspects and this can only happen through reconciliation and collaboration between all of us.
2) Light has always had a symbolic meaning: in philosophy, it is understood as what allows us to see, to distinguish and therefore to reveal the things and objects that surround us.
