In the mid-1980's, 340,000 people in the United States owned cell phones. Today, that number is well over 250 million. World-wide, more than a billion people have
gone wireless, and most of them have no idea that inside the sleek, plastic
exterior of every cell phone sits a package of electronics laden with hazardous
substances called persistent, bio accumulative and toxic chemicals (PBTS). When
cell users toss their phones into the trash, PBTs like lead, arsenic, and cadmium
leak into the land, air, and water, eventually entering into the tissues of animals
and humans. Every year, 150 million cell phones-complete with batteries and
chargers- are pitched into the garbage instead of being re-cycled or safely
disposed of. As the popularity of cellular phones soars, growing number of cell
users are creating growing piles of toxic trash.

The harlem renaissance dawned in an era of pervasive racism and segregation. although legally "free," many african americans were still bound by ideas that had their roots in the slavery of earlier centuries. identity and freedom are important ideas presented in many of the poems from the harlem renaissance. furthermore, the values of identity and freedom are not unique to particular times and places. as hughes expresses in "dream variations," all humans want to be able to develop their identities in freedom. what role does freedom play in the poems you read in this unit? what is required of a society to enable each individual to be true to his or her identity and be free to live by that identity? write about at least three of the poems, describing how the poet uses imagery to depict freedom and identity, the lack of it, or the desire for it.
