    The Century Quilt Poem Analysis

    J Personal items can often hold a lot of weight for a child. For Marilyn Nelson Waniek, this is represented through her and her sister’s love of blankets. A source of comfort, imagination, and memories, the blankets and quilt Waniek describes throughout her poem, The Century Quilt, illustrate her feelings towards family. Waniek uses structure, imagery, and tone in her poem to show her deep relationship to her family, and most particularly their diversity and the way their generations progress.…

    Analysis Of War Dances By Sherman Alexie

    You sit down to read a book to let your imagination go and you realize that the story you are reading is bringing back memories instead. Every story has different impressions on each individual reader depending on the reader’s experiences. In reading Sherman Alexie’s fictional memoir War Dances it brought back memories, anxieties, and disappointments that created mixed emotions within me. A part in the story that brought back a memory is when Alexie describes a scene between the narrator and his Native American father.…

    Poem And Symbols In River Hymns By Tyree Daye

    In River Hymns, specifically “Dirt Cakes” and “Southern Silence,” Tyree Daye depicts Youngsville as a small, rural, white majority with racial divisions -- racism. He has a place in the town amongst all of the problems, along with family and friends. The adults in the family have to let loose and forget what has happened throughout the week with drinking and dancing. This shows the backgrowling work that they are forced into and in a bad working environment. He writes in a way that is not happy or joyous, but in a gloomy and dark way.…

    Poem Analysis: The Harlem Dancer By Claude Mckay

    In “The Harlem Dancer,” Claude McKay describes a woman who is performing to a crowd of youths through the eyes of an audience member. The narrator seems to be explaining everything that has to do with her body and appearance, rather than what she is actually thinking. He later realizes that she is unhappy while performing, though it is still unknown as to what the dancer is thinking. The use of tone and diction reveals that she is actually distancing herself from her reality due the traumatic experience of her ongoing objectification and victimization of predation.…

    Summary Of The Poem It Would Be Neat, If With The New Year

    “ It would be neat, if with the New Year” by Jimmy Baca is a short poem, which holds a deep significance about the past and future, about things that have been parts of our ordinary life. In the poem, the speaker desires a fresh start in his life, but in the end he soon realizes that he can never throw away his past to move on completely. With the skillful uses of symbolism, metaphor, imagery, and narrative poetry, the author successfully leads the mystery and depth of the poem to the readers. To begin with, Baca purposely creates a diversion in the title and the first two sentences to surprise the reader later in the poem. As first, he believes that moving on is the right thing, “It would be neat if with the New Year” (line 1), which shows…

    America's Unorthodox Day

    President Eisenhower once said, “Whatever America hopes to bring pass in the world must first come to pass in the heart of America,” and even though he wasn’t talking about Unorthodox Day, it fits very well. Unorthodox Day could really improve not only the lives of each and every American, but it could help to change the country from within, which in turn could change the world. The date would be June 21, that way it would either be the summer solstice, or only days from it, allowing maximum time to “get out of your comfort zone.” It would allow Americans to try something different, something new, and be free of charge to citizens. The day would also become a national holiday, allowing even more men, women, and even children to enjoy it.…

    Chrystos Poem Analysis

    Chrystos is making the argument that all white people have things that they had no idea that they originated from Native American culture and that in a way they are disgracing their culture and beliefs. She assumes that we don’t have Native roots until the end of the poem saying that maybe we have a grandma who was Native American. She is making the stereotype that white people don’t have any regard for other cultures and that whites think they are superior to others. I think “it” is referring to some people who don’t know very much about other cultures and were something or own something without knowing its roots. She does seem somewhat angry because she just wants them to know where the things they have truly came from and how to respect…

    Ceremony Poem Analysis

    In Silko’s “Ceremony,” women are associated with the birthing and the rebirth of man-kind and nature. In many cases, the creation of man-kind and nature has been directly linked to a higher power of God, so in a sense, women are the equivalent of a sort of spiritual hero. We seem to grasp a strong sense of the all-powerful female role by the strong feminist theme that Silko introduces us to upon the opening of the text when she recounts a native poem, “Ts’its’nako, Thought-Woman, is sitting in her room and whatever she thinks about appears. She thought of her sisters… and together they created the Universe this world and the four worlds below. Thought Woman, the spider, named things and as she named them they appeared.”…

    Persuasive Essay On Australia Day

    Good Moring Mrs Davies and class, Celebrating our national day on the date of British settlement in 1788 has never been a date that brings all Australians together, no matter how many flags we wave or happy barbecues we may enjoy. For many Indigenous Australians, the date is no holiday but a reminder of their country being taken over by others. It completely disrupted a way of life that had been undisturbed for 50,000 years. The date of Australia Day is a disrespectful celebration towards aboriginal Australians.…
