Explanation:

Mildred D. Taylor's novel "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry" revolves around the story of a 9-year old girl named Cassie Logan. It deals with the theme of racism and how the blacks survived in white America.

In the given excerpt, Cassie narrates how she 'became' the slave of Lillian Jean and how she enjoyed being addressed "Miz" by "her little colored friend". This shows how the whites see themselves as superior to the blacks while the blacks think it's normal for them to be treated as such.

Thus, this scene shows how white citizens’ treatment of African American citizens was unjust and humiliating.

everyman: morality play

which phrase in this excerpt from the play everyman refers to god's judgment of people's souls after their death?

messenger: . .

ye think sin in the beginning full sweet,

which in( the end) causeth thy soul to weep,

when the body lieth in clay.

here shall you see how fellowship and jollity,

both strength, pleasure, and beauty,

will fade from thee as flower in may.

for ye shall hear, how our heavenly king

calleth everyman to a (general reckoning):

give audience, and hear what he doth say.

god: i perceive here in my majesty,

how that all the creatures be to me unkind,

living without dread in worldly prosperity:

of (ghostly sight) the people be so blind,

drowned in sin, they know me not for their god;

in worldly riches is all their mind,

they fear not( my righteousness), the sharp rod;

(my law that i shewed), when i for them die
