I disliked how they repeated topics and phrases that they had already explained.
One question i have is why did Hughes include quotes from other people to strengthen his poem]]> 2016-09-02 13:36:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cmanz/j3a1yucyipr0/wish/121318079 https://padlet.com/cmanz/j3a1yucyipr0/wish/121318102 One thing i liked about the answer was that they explained their quotes and it's significance and when they used the plow quotes they explained how it relates to freedom. One thing they could change was that they could be more specific about the quotes and see how the quotes go together and connect. How is the plow something to be shared around the world.

They show the tone of the poem and how the people who were fighting for their freedom were determined. They also explain how the quote "KEEP YOUR HAND ON THE PLOW! HOLD ON!" Shows their determination and persistence.

"Keep your hand on the plow! Hold on!" does show how if they don't give up and they wait, freedom will come eventually. Their efforts will pay off when they gain freedom. When you said that The plow symbolizes what they had to do to gain freedom, it gave me a better understanding of what the plow is.
