Answer:

The lectures were addressed to individuals who could see to highlight and create awareness on the discrimination and withholding of privileges to the blind.

Explanation:

Written by Kate M. Foley, the book, Five Lectures on Blindness was meant to be read at the summer session of the University of California in 1918. The author who was blind herself but was mentally intelligent and smart had been denied jobs due to her disability. She wrote this book to draw the attention of the public to the discrimination being meted out to blind people.

For example, she talked about a very smart lawyer who when he became blind, was now pitied by his colleagues and would not be offered jobs by clients. She appealed to people with sight to show more empathy to the blind and allow them to do work that they were qualified for.

Analyze Explain Mario Cuomo’s conundrum.
Annette [7]

This question is about "A Quilt of a Country"

Answer and Explanation:

Mario Cuomo's enigma was exposed to show how the USA imposes the concept of individualism on its growing population and encourages the adoption of this concept in all possible activities, however, in addition to being a defining concept of the American population, it is also a concept that is in constant conflict, thus creating a "social paradox", so to speak, because the nation that grew in an individualistic way, sees itself in various situations where it needs to work in the collectivity and in solidarity.

Within the text, Quindlen uses this concept of conflict between the collective and individualism as support for the argument that the USA is a multicultural nation, full of the most different ethnicities, but all this difference does not prevent the country made up of a single people that is subject to a single government.
