Please help! In at least 150 words, identify the claim, or central idea, in "The Unseen Values," and provide two examples of evidence the author uses to support his claim.

The central idea in "The Unseen Values," is the price that the search for security can present.

Explanation:

During the narrative of "The Unseen Values," we are introduced to a family that lives in a highly dangerous neighborhood. This neighborhood is made up of black and white people, however violence has attacked everyone. The author shows the concern of families to ensure the safety of their homes and for that reason they arm their walls with barbed wires that prevent thieves from entering. However, the search for security in a very violent society comes at a high price, since the author shows a child dying in agony trapped in the barbed wires placed on the walls.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
