The accurate answer is C.

In his essay, Baldwin articulates that languages are developed by people to describe and manage their realities, as failing to do so risks being overwhelmed by an inexpressible reality.

He further explains that the language spoken by white individuals does not serve black people well since it fails to capture their lived experiences, prompting them to create a language that Baldwin refers to as "black English."

Read the lines from Robert Hayden’s poem "Monet’s ‘Waterlilies,’” and then look at the painting Water Lilies by Claude Monet.
Leya [7781]

Answer: The correct option is the second one: An allusion to conflict.

Explanation: To elaborate, it is important to note that American poet Robert Hayden (1913-1980) focused significantly on the experiences and history of Black Americans, which is evident through his references to two pivotal conflicts affecting that community: the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War, marked by the cities of Selma and Saigon. In 1965, protest marches commenced from Selma, Alabama, aimed at asserting the constitutional right of African Americans to vote, during which attendees faced violent opposition, arrests, and even fatalities. Simultaneously, many African Americans were sent to Vietnam to combat the war and liberate the South Vietnamese, despite their own rights being compromised at home. Consequently, one of the earliest organizations opposing the Vietnam War was the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, which interconnected the anti-Vietnam War stance with the Civil Rights Movement.

This is why the speaker in Hayden’s poem references Monet’s renowned painting, which encapsulates tranquility and beauty in a segment of his Japanese garden, providing a brief escape from the harsh reality.

How do you think the story will develop at the party? Check all that apply.
seraphim [7410]

Benvolio will be correct, leading Romeo to completely forget about Rosaline.

Romeo and Benvolio's identities as Montagues will come to light, resulting in a confrontation.

Juliet will face a choice regarding her marriage to Paris.

Your personal perspective is requested with the prompt, "What do you think?" Nonetheless, certain choices logically align with the knowledge acquired from previous readings of the narrative and its prologue. Since it's clear Romeo will not pursue Rosaline, it's reasonable to assume he no longer has feelings for her when he encounters Juliet at the gathering. Additionally, the prologue hints at renewed conflict relating to an age-old feud, suggesting more altercations are on the horizon. Lastly, Juliet is expected to decide on her engagement to Paris during the event, given her discussion with her mother. Although we might anticipate her choice, it's worth noting.
