Answer:

In his poem "For a Lady I Know," Countee Cullen depicts the clash between the upper and lower classes of society. The poem is assumed to be about upper-class white Americans who treat African Americans poorly. He points out the audacity of the upper class to presume that African Americans would continue to wait on them forever, even after death:

She even thinks that up in heaven

Her class lies late and snores

While poor black cherubs rise at seven

To do celestial chores.

This poem suggests that white Americans don’t want to help improve the lifestyle of poor African Americans but are comfortable with the minority races serving them forever.

Explanation:

From Plato :)

What role does theocracy play in the plot thus far? Remember, a theocracy is a government ruled by God, meaning all reverends ar
Sloan [31]

This question is about "The crucible".

Answer and Explanation:

Theocracy is the basis for all administrative and governmental decisions in the whole plot of "The Crucible". In this case, it is believed that the existence of "witches" is causing problems in the city. It is the government's responsibility to end the city's problems, in this case, the theocratic government, like the one in history, seeks to resolve them with teligious justifications.

Although all the characters show theocracy's effects on their personalities, the ones who show this most clearly are those who have government and religious influence in the city, such as Reverend Parris, Herrick, Judge Hathorne and Judge Danforth.
