Influence
Persuasive essays give the reader reasons to go through with an idea.
Vinvika [58]2 years ago

The answer is: defend.  The whole purpose in a<em> Persuasive Essay</em> is to try to <em>convince</em> the readers about certain things. This requires that the writer take a firm position, <em>defending his points</em>.  He doesn't present the other side, but, because he believes he is suggesting ideas that will make things better, he invites participation and advises that if the ideas are not embraced, things might not get better.

Instructions:Drag each tile to the correct location. The poems “I, Too” by Langston Hughes and “From the Dark Tower” by Countee
Margarita [4]
A reference to Walt Whitman's "I Hear America Singing" => "I, Too". Langston Hughes' poem adds the African American identity to Whitman's list of ordinary people who constitute and contribute to American collective identity.

Paradox of social injustice => "I, Too". Hughes depicts the social inequality of black people, who are traditionally confined to servitude. He hopes, however, that this will change eventually.

Uses set meter and rhyme scheme => "From the Dark Tower". The poem's rhyme scheme is ABBA.

Symbol of wasted effort => "From the Dark Tower". Black people are the ones who plant, while white people reap.

Stone of anger and resentment => "From the Dark Tower". It depicts black people's anger at being constantly and systematically oppressed.

Uses free verse => "I, Too". Hughes' poem has a conversational tone. The free verse depicts the inner freedom that the speaker feels, and wants to transform into real freedom and equality.
