Number 43 Ezemmuo Street,

Aluu-ulu Community.

To the traditional ruler, Aluu-ulu,

           DISCARDING OF SHAVING OFF THE HAIR OF A WIDOW

Igweeee! Good day sir.

I write to you with deep pains over the suffering the women in Aluu-ulu community over the years. It has been a custom in our community since I can remember to shave off the hair of widows as a sign of mourning which not only goes against their fundamental human rights but is morally wrong because this shaving is usually done without consent.

I know of a young widow that her hair was shaved against her wishes and because she resisted the evil exercise, she was accused of having a hand in her husband's death and was put through the more barbaric ritual of swearing before an 'oracle' that she was innocent of the charges brought against her. This is a grieving woman that needs all the moral support and encouragement she can get, but no, she was subjected to such sub-human treatment which was totally unacceptable.

Your highness, I strongly believe this custom of shaving the hair of widows in Aluu-ulu community should be stopped and discarded completely.

                                                                                            Yours sincerely,

                                                                                             John Thomas.

slavery back in the day

slavery that started in 1619

O how slavery was horrible

Making people work on there commands

But then on the day December 18, 1865

The 13th amendment abolished slavery

And all people got to be who they wanted to be

Next comes many years later

People going crazy over not being treated better

Even though they get better treatment than anyone else

Riots started

And history faded

The people took advantage of their background

Making everyone else bow down to their knees

O how ignorant people are

Changing the story's all the time

But o, how you'll never hear the real truth on TV

People started believing the ones in the wrong

They ended up taking more until peace was gone

Now, why can't people just know there facts

And not listen to what everyone tells them.

Blacks were not the only slaves

White people were in slaved to

And George Floyd was not a good man

But everyone is to brainwashed to know any better too

Which piece of evidence supports this inference?

In this image, we are given the background knowledge of the fact that readers generally feel more connected to characters when they can see similarities between themselves and the characters.

We also learn that Jacqueline was hoping to see experiences like her own reflected in the books that she read.

Therefore, the evidence that best fits these assumptions is the fact that Jacqueline was grateful to authors who wrote about the childhood of black girls, as she was hoping these experiences connected with her own. Rest all options like A, B and C are incorrect.

Therefore, correct option is D.

What does the first stanza of "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" suggest about the speaker's view of religious customs? She does not believe in creating religious customs. She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way. She finds religious customs to be tedious.

Answers

Answer:

She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way.

Explanation:

The first stanza of "Some Keep the Sabbath Going to Church" goes thus:

Some keep the Sabbath going to Church –

I keep it, staying at Home –  

With a Bobolink for a Chorister –  

And an Orchard, for a Dome –

We can immediately see that the speaker says that some people keep the Sabbath day by going to church, but she does the opposite, by staying at home and instead of singing in the choir or listening to the choir, she uses a bobolink and her orchard represents the dome of a church.

These details suggest that the speaker participates in religious customs in an unconventional way

Answer:

She participates in religious customs in an unconventional way.
