By mentally and physically carrying things such as burdens, this story helped a man become a leader to many soldiers and civilians. I think the graphic below shows a good indication of someone carrying something but we don't always know what it is and it relates heavily to the story "The Things They Carried", by Tim O'Brien.

Death of a salesman was a twisted story with lots of hidden meanings. My personal opinion is that a Salesman is a glorified liar that gets paid to do so, in many ways the salesman of this story had hidden lies.

The author of this story uses conflict so well to be able to depict racism to his audience. The narrator tells a story of his grandfather and sets foot to live by his grandfathers wishes.

In this short story a new lady on the block seems to be overly worried about the children, while the parents don't like her! Just like the title, this story is all about a life lesson. This woman tries to point out to the children that any child can succeed if the fully apply themselves no matter what part of society they are raised in.

This story was a bit of a twist because we see African American's being racist towards whites. This story was about segregation and how society today is quick to judge others. I chose the picture below because it truly shows segregation.

In this poem, Langston Hughes talked a lot about how America isn't what it was supposed to be. America is supposed to be free and full of opportunity. Little did Langston Hughes know that during the Harlem Renaissance America was only full of opportunity to a certain race.

This poem is one that I wrote about in my essay, it grabs the readers attention because it speaks to us in a different way. The vulgarity of it brings the truth to life. Langston Hughes was certainly a good writer and knew how to tell his stories in different ways.

This short story was rather interesting. A woman more happy with her pet bird than her own marriage. Maybe the woman believed in an eye for an eye and since her husband clearly disliked the bird and rung its neck, she just returned the gesture. Mrs. Wright didn't seem like disturbing individual, however, it is hard to really know a person you don't know!

In this story a woman is unhappy in her marriage but continually lies to make her husband believe otherwise. Everyday we are responsible for our own happiness and it's completely unfair to ourselves to live with anything less!

In this short story, it seems at first when a woman had heard of her husbands tragic death she was overcome with helpless sorrows; as she found the courage to be alone she seemed to have flashbacks and finally have the freedom she had been longing for, for so long. Once she seemed to gather her composure she found out his death was mistaken and she then died of shock or as some of us may see it, she died to be free.

In this short story, I pictured a mother trying to teach her daughter how to be an admired woman. While her mother may not have had all the right words, she was expressing her love to her daughter. I still thought it was a bit harsh to call her daughter a slut, however, we are all affected by words differently.
