Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky

Which excerpt from shirley chisholmâs speech âequal rights for womenâ provides support for chisholmâs analysis of how the facts justify her conclusion? `it is true that part of the problem has been that women have not been aggressive in demanding their rights. this was also true of the black population for many years. they submitted to oppression and even cooperated with it. women have done the same thing. `women need no protection that men do not need. what we need are laws to protect working people, to guarantee them fair pay, safe working conditions, protection against sickness and layoffs, and provision for dignified, comfortable retirement. men and women need these things equally. that one sex needs protection more than the other is a male supremacist myth. `it is obvious that discrimination exists. women do not have the opportunities that men do. and women that do not conform to the system, who try to break with the accepted patterns, are stigmatized as ââoddââ and âunfeminine.â the fact is that a woman who aspires to be chairman of the board, or a member of the house, does so for exactly the same reasons as any man. `as in the field of equal rights for blacks, spanish-americans, the indians, and other groups, laws will not change such deep-seated problems overnight. but they can be used to provide protection for those who are most abused, and to begin the process of evolutionary change by compelling the insensitive majority to reexamine its unconscious attitudes.
