In at least two hundred words, explain how the musician from "Arrangement in Black and White" relates to the African
chubhunter [2.5K]

In "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain," Hughes talks about the importance of identity and race in art. He argues that a true artist cannot be one in a way that is separate from his own identity. This is particularly true in the United States, where your racial background determines every aspect of who you are, what opportunities you have access to, and how people treat you.

This is illustrated in "Arrangement in Black and White." In this story, we see an African American artist who is admired by a white woman. The woman considers herself to be liberal and accepting of others. However, she is unable to look past her own racism and bias, despite her claim of being modern and understanding. This supports Hughes idea of the artist being unable to be an artist independently from his racial identity.

Mkey [24]

The following answers would be best for this question would be:

<span>1.       </span>First of all, he asked Miss Lucas. I was so vexed to see him stand up with her! "His pride," said Miss Lucas, "does not offend me so much as pride often does, because there is an excuse for it. One cannot wonder that so very fine a young man, with family, fortune, everything in his favour, should think highly of himself. If I may so express it, he has a right to be proud."

 

<span>2.       </span>"That is very true," replied Elizabeth, "and I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine."

 

These two excerpts describe the main theme of the story which I fact is, pride and prejudice, it states in both characters specifically Elizabeth and Darcy are in a dilemma with their own personal conflicts; a character vs character  type of plot.
