Explanation:

A poem about society and racism

They returned home

to a war raging against racism;

this battle becoming  

their new “In-Country” "Out Post!"

We now bash and murder people

for whom they freely choose to love.

It makes me often wonder

if God judges same sex marriage from Above?

History is sadly repeating itself

wrongly all over this entire earth.

It truly saddens me

for when I see it I lose my mirth.

Why does it always happen

time and time again so very fast;

that all countries wish to forget

the collective sins of their sordid past?

I wrote this poem to spread awareness

of the “biased continued race;”

of us “wrongly hating”

each other’s “precious race!”

What are we really

rushing to wrongly beset?

“Separatism” is the only thing

I can see that we'd sadly get!

Is this the ultimate goal

of those who spread such evil and hate?

We can not take it lightly

because it will “influence our destined fate!”

I know this and lived it all too well;

myself being mixed with “black and white.”

I'm not “black enough to be black”

and not “white enough to be white!”

 

But I dare not forget

part of my culture is from an Asian influence

 

East-West Indian to be exact

which added more prejudiced indifference;

 

I am” half accepted” by some

and “equally despised” by the other!

Is it my own fault I was born

of a “mixed race father and mother?”

Aren’t “we” all the “same;”

irrespective of “race, creed, color, sex, and religion?”

It truly is a shame

those five words only “causes racial division!”

Here is something I wish for you all

to think about extremely hard.

If you're at deaths door and need a transplant

would you ask the color on your donor’s card?

Please ponder this question also;

if one “race of people” are “superior” to another,

then shouldn't “their blood” not be able

to "be transfused" into that of an “inferior other?”

Blood is blood!

It's the essence of all life;

it knows not ones outer color;

based on that there should be no strife.

If we cut one another;

is all of our blood not red?

Do we not breathe the same air;

and at some point all end up dead?!

We are one people; “human beings”

living on a planet hurtling through infinite time and space.

A great cosmic collision or earth’s natural fury

could at any moment end our precious “human race!”

That's something we should

always sincerely think about,

when we use racial hatred

in taking somebody out!

Life is precious; we must live and let live,

as well as live and let die;

but we must always question

those mortal reasons why?

It makes no hypocritical political difference

that we now fight against our enemy’s oppression's!

When we also beheaded, scalped, buried alive, raped and murdered; committing those same acts of transgressions!

Freedom and liberation we promise them.

Hypocrisy at the end of a gun!

Are we trying to atone

for the same sins we have done?

“Let those without sins

cast the first stone!”

Nobody heeds these words;

and the world will groan!

It's said,

“If society does not learn from the sins of their past;

they are then condemned

to repeat those same “sins of their past!”

This world could never

“fix or heal itself;”

without each “individual country”

first “fixing and healing itself!”

The first “positive step” that should be made;

is to adjust the way we think!

“Negative thoughts” create “negative emotions;”

and the end result will always stink!

I'm not ashamed to admit'...

I was once full of such prejudice and hate!

All it did for me

was close heavens door and open hell's gate!

But after deep Soul searching

and many, many Spiritual battles;

“those  evil snakes” went away

along with their “influential rattles!”

This came about because

I was able to free my mind;

in that life defining moment

this is what I came to find...

when one is

truly centered

and at peace

 

all you want to do

is make wars cease!

I hope just one,

if not you all;

understand that

a country divided

will ultimately fall!

She will desperately drop

while sobbing on her knees;

and her bloody tears help grow

those dreaded “Poplar Trees.”

Then we'll be united

as we all swing from

a mutually created limb.

History has proven this

it’s the facts;...

and not just me being grim.

So my beloved country

these United States of America;

standing “united” should now become

our primary agenda!

Let's “lead by example”

and start the change;

for the whole world knows

in its own backyard...

is "Where the “Strange Fruit” Grows!"

~THIS IS MY POEM DEDICATED TO PEACE AND RACIAL HARMONY~

Read this excerpt from We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March.

Although life was better in the projects than in the tenement house, Wash began to glimpse more of the other world and realize what he was missing. "You'd walk by the Alabama Theatre, and the door would open, and you'd feel that cool air." He also noticed white people eating at the counter at J. J. Newberry's Department Store. "More than anything," he said, "I wanted a banana split behind that counter . . . But you couldn't go back there." Instead Wash and other blacks had to eat in the basement standing up.

How does this excerpt best help readers make a connection to world events?

by offering an example of racial segregation
by offering criticisms of badly kept housing
by offering details about movies Wash enjoys
by offering a glimpse of modern inventions

Answers

Answer:

This excerpt best helps readers make a connection to world events:

A. by offering an example of racial segregation.

Explanation:

By Cynthia Levinson, "We’ve Got a Job: The 1963 Children’s March" is a book about some of the people who took part in the march against segregation in Alabama. Between 3,000 and 4,000 children protested, and among them was Washington Booker, aka Wash.

The excerpt we are analyzing here offers clears examples of segregation. African Americans, like Wash, were not allowed in certain places. The differences were huge. Places attended by white people were better, more modern, more comfortable. African Americans were told to accept a harsher reality - such as eating in the basement standing up. But they did not, and bravely faced jail time to demand equality.

With social distancing, we now separate ourselves from other parts of society. This has made me feel very much disconnected from my friends. Humans are made to be out and about and socialize with beings on Earth. These unfortunate events have led many people to be disconnected from society. This has allowed my mind to go to the dark side, where my fears come out. My main fear is “How long will my life be on pause?” I’m afraid of how long I will be stuck in the house and can’t see my friends. Will it be a couple more weeks or will it be a couple months?

Write a letter to a friend, telling him or her why Jesus is the only way to God and how one becomes a Christian. Use your own testimony to help your friend understand how your message applies to him or her. Include Scripture verses where appropriate.

Answers

Answer:

    Dear 'friend',

    Jesus is the only way to God because he died to pay for our sins. Through him, our sins are washed away and forgiven. The only way to get to our Lord God is to believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." He also said in John 8:24, "if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins", which means that if you do not believe that Jesus is God in the flesh, then you will be cast into Hell. The only steps in the process of becoming a Christian is to believe in Christ, and to confess your life and sins to Him, and to believe the word of Jesus.

(Add a few things here about what the Lord has done for you and what he can do for your friend. I hope this helped!!!)

Answers

Hello. You have not entered the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is likely that this text is referring to a recipe, in this case, we can assume that if Atwood used the word "conjure" instead of "make" or "bake", it is because she is referring to this recipe as a magic ritual that intends to invoke something spiritual, divine, like the bread or cake that this recipe may be referring to.
