Which excerpt from "W.E.B. Du Bois: Social Justice Leader” best supports the theme that a person can make a difference in the wo

rld by standing up for justice and equality?
Seven years later, the US government returned his passport, and Du Bois left the United States. He made his home in Ghana, Africa.

Du Bois traveled to Moscow, Russia, as part of the 1949 peace conference, and the US government falsely accused him of being an agent of a foreign power, or in other words, a spy.

One year after Du Bois’s death, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 passed in the United States; it included many of the reforms that Du Bois had fought for during his nearly 100-year lifetime.

Du Bois rejected this view. He was against any form of compromise and in favor of full and immediate equality. In response, Du Bois formed the Niagara Movement in 1905 with several other civil rights leaders.

zimovet [89]
It is quite complicated to choose one of the generalization because they tend not to state the general idea of the excerpt. However, I would say that the best option is D  "<span>It is close to Nickleby High School". So students seem to be used to go there, they go on a Saturday and they could come across other classmates.

Describe the tone of each stanza in Siegfried Sassoon’s poem “Poet as Hero.” Provide textual evidence to support your answer.
Novay_Z [31]

Sassoon begins the poem with an angry tone. The speaker describes how Sassoon has changed from sweet to angry:

  You’ve heard me, scornful, harsh, and discontented,  

         Mocking and loathing War: you’ve asked me why  

    Of my old, silly sweetness I’ve repented—  

         My ecstasies changed to an ugly cry.  

As the poem progresses, Sassoon shifts to why he was hopeful when he first started out as a military officer:

    You are aware that once I sought the Grail,  

         Riding in armour bright, serene and strong;  

    And it was told that through my infant wail  

         There rose immortal semblances of song.

Sassoon ends the poem with a tone of being content that he has changed in this process:

    But now I’ve said good-bye to Galahad,  

         And am no more the knight of dreams and show:  

    For lust and senseless hatred make me glad,  

         And my killed friends are with me where I go.  

    Wound for red wound I burn to smite their wrongs;  

         And there is absolution in my songs.
