Please answer all 4 questions below. For each question, use at least 2 of this week’s texts (Wheatley, Walker, or a spiritual) as evidence to support your reasoning:
How are poetic devices used in our texts? Choose at least one poetic device from our Intro to Poetry & Metaphor page, include at least one quote for each text to illustrate how the passage you chose illustrates the poetic device. For example, if you choose metaphor, provide a quote from a text from this week that has a metaphor, and then explain how that line is a metaphor and what the metaphor is.
What contemporary historical moments are our authors responding to? Include at least one quote for each text to illustrate your reasoning.
What systems of oppression are our authors challenging? How can we use Critical Race Theory as a lens to view, and more deeply understand, the texts? Include at least one quote for each text to illustrate your reasoning.
Please offer one key takeaway from this week’s materials. How did you feel while reading/listening? What stood out to you as the most noteworthy message, line of poetry, or song? This is very open-ended here. I just want to know what your reading and listening experiences were.
