<span>Daisy was involved with Gatsby during her youth. After a decade apart, she believed he had been killed in WWI. Gatsby was her first love, and she idealized their relationship. Initially, she struggles to comprehend how Gatsby is alive, and she is completely captivated by the mystery and excitement surrounding his return. Once Myrtle Wilson dies, Daisy seamlessly resumes her routine life. Her ability to do so demonstrates the societal attitudes towards women at that time. Women were often seen as frail, and Daisy likely evaded suspicion in the murder, with the police choosing not to charge her. Additionally, her husband was a powerful businessman, which likely influenced the situation politically.</span>

At the end of "Notes of a Native Son," what argument does James Baldwin make that resolves one of his central ideas? A.That free
hammer [7621]

In the conclusion of "Notes of a Native Son," Baldwin asserts that one must choose between hatred and acceptance.

Following his father's death, Baldwin experienced an epiphany: he finally grasped the significance behind his father's long-held beliefs. He concludes that harboring bitterness and choosing to hate is unwise: "But I recognized this bitterness was folly, as my father would have remarked. It was crucial to cling to what truly mattered."

He goes on to highlight two mindsets a person can adopt: total acceptance or rejection. Total acceptance equates to conformity, normalizing injustice and leading a life where it seems that change is impossible. Conversely, non-acceptance means actively resisting and not taking injustice for granted.

However, this struggle must be free from hatred, as hatred also harms the hater. Baldwin states, "It is now my responsibility to keep my heart free from hatred and despair." No one else could make that choice for him. Regardless of how contradictory these ideas may seem, he opted for acceptance without hatred.
