Even though veil really means a piece of fine material worn by women to protect or conceal the face. This plays a big role in “the souls of black folk” because it tints how they are able to live their life.

For example, "After the Egyptian and Indian, the Greek and Roman, the Teuton and Mongolian, the Negro is a sort of seventh son, born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this American world,--- a world which yields him no true self-consciousness, but only lets him see himself through the revelation of the other world". In this quote he uses "the veil" as the metaphor for the separation that is between the black society and "the other world" which is the white society.

He describes the “sky was the bluest” when I beat people which means that he takes more advantage of what does best when the sky is blue. He uses this type of figurative language in his story to make the outline of it more understanding and to help our readers know what is being said.

This is an example of figurative language because it compares both races lifes to a prison. He uses the example of the prison because both races are trapped but differently. The whites are trapped in a better prison yet they are trapped in their racist thoughts. The black people however are trapped in in a prison with no opportunities and only have hope. This figurative language also helps the readers understand how much more opportunities the whites have compared to the black people. The author put this quote to help readers see and feel how he felt. https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084653344 -Yenifer M]]> 2021-01-13 19:20:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084653344 quickwrite-Michelle https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084661357 "Then it dawned upon me with a certain suddenness that I was different from the others; or like,
mayhap, in heart and life and longing, but shut out from their world by a vast veil." The figurative language used in the text compares a vast veil to a barrier formed between him and the "others". No matter what good he does, he is never seen as one of them; they always view him a someone less and "from the other world".]]> 2021-01-13 19:22:47 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084661357 quick write- Erika Carrillo https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084662081 Du Bois uses the metaphor "shut out from their world by a vast veil¨.

He wanted to show that he was the same as everyone else and can achieve things as well but he isn't allowed just because the color of his skin . this leads to him explaining "the vast veil" is the barrier that was created by white people and the black kids just have to be in like a "prison-house" with no escape.

desire to tear down that veil, to creep through; I held all beyond it in common contempt..." In this sentence he uses figurative language by using the words "vast veil" as in he knows and sees the "other world" but is not apart of it and is left out.

At these I smile, or am interested, or reduce the boiling to a simmer, as the occasion may require." Its a metaphor because its comparing how bad his anger can get when they are saying hurtful things like that.He's not going to interact to make the situation big and worse then it is so he just keeps calm and not say anything.I interpret that he feels like if he says something then the situation will turn worse and get ugly real fast because he is a black man. https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084721156

mayhap, in heart and life and longing, but shut out from their world by a vast veil." He uses a metaphor here to show the divide in society and to help the reader understand what it's like to be viewed from the "other world ". Because of him being different, it doesn't matter what he does; as long as he is viewed from the other side, he will always be seen as different and lesser. - Matthew Smith]]> 2021-01-13 20:08:01 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1084852174 Quick Write lesson 3 https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1116981527 Du Bois uses the metaphor "O water, voice of my heart, crying in the sand."It means that he loves the water and misses it.]]> 2021-01-23 14:50:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1116981527 Quick write nichowinso https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1116993335 Du Bois uses the metaphor "O water, voice of my heart, crying in the sand."It means that he loves the water and misses it.]]> 2021-01-23 14:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1116993335 Quick Write https://padlet.com/sarahvance7/nhw3a6xyoacfwlwg/wish/1184348136 In paragraph one he says "Between me and the other world there is ever an unanswered question."
