It has to be difficult for someone to leave the only place they have ever known, and move to an entirely different continent, but yet it has to be truly brave too. Many immigrants left their homes, and traveled thousands of miles to The United States of America, in search of not only a new life, but a better way of life. In New York City, in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, on 97 Orchard Street, stands a monumental building. The Tenement Museum is a historical site, which reflects the time span of 1863 -1935, during some of the peak years of European immigration to America.
Imagine walking down an empty, gloomy street deserted of people, engulfed with death, tingling with the sorrow for lost loved ones, and blanketed with the feeling of uneasiness and fear. Fever 1793 by Laurie Halse Anderson describes this world that the protagonist, Matilda Cook, a fourteen-year-old, lives in during the 1793 Yellow Fever epidemic in Philadelphia. The book outlines her life and how her personality and feelings dramatically change during the few months of the fever. Towards the beginning of the book, she is lazy and does not enjoy working, but in a few months when the fever turns her life upside-down, she has to mature and work extremely hard to survive.
She showed it through the eyes of Mr. March. Slaves were often whipped for not following orders. “Strip by strip the lash carved into Grace’s shuddering flesh. Tears were falling by then, heavy drops, joining the leaf dust with blood that ha begun to trickle from the table” (p.39).
A Yellow Raft on Blue Water Character Analysis Rayona, in Michael Dorris’ “A Yellow Raft of Blue Water”, is the perfect example of a fifteen-year-old girl. She is self conscious about her background (half black, half Native American), her height (too tall), her weight (too skinny), and her family (or what passes as one). In addition to her typical teenage conundrums, Rayona must endeavor to keep track of her alcoholic mother, Christine, who is constantly in the hospital for alcohol poisoning (3). Rayona gets no help from her father, Elgin. Elgin abandoned Christine when Rayona was a baby and only periodically checks in on them (5).
Her personal joy was found sitting in their patio swing and listening to the birds’ chirp, watching her cats play and a picture-perfect sunset in the
Secure Dwellings: Rejoicing in Hope Secure Dwellings continues to assist homeless children and their female caregivers throughout the state of Alabama and surrounding states. The program is currently serving 10 mothers and 22 children as of this board meeting date. I often wonder how they able to continue live with all of the unfortunate circumstances and experiences that have cause their lives to be in disarray, some situations due to poor choices and sometimes due to no fault of their own. The more I ponder that question the following scripture came to mind, “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.”
In the same page, he also tells how a woman killed his wife’s cousin in the cruelest way. Afterwards, he talks about the horrible feeling this murder produced throughout the entire community. Douglass also recounts the experience of watching the slaveholder whip his aunt until she was covered in blood and the pleasure the slaveholder seemed to take in it. The graphic description of her abuse makes readers feel the same anger Douglass must have
Throughout the narrative, the author includes his personal stories about experiencing the violence of slavery first-hand. For example, on page 20, he writes about the first time he witnessed a slave, his own aunt, getting the whip. “The louder she screamed, the harder he whipped; and where the blood ran fastest, there he whipped longest…I remember the first time I ever witnessed this horrible exhibition… It struck me with awful force. It was the blood-stained gate, the entrance to the hell of slavery…” The author including his experience of his aunts whipping, in detail, appeals to the emotions of the reader.
Douglass recalls, "Her [Aunt Hester's] arms were stretched up at their full length, so that she stood upon the ends of her toes. He then said to her, 'Now, you d——d b—-h, I'll learn you how to disobey my orders!' and after rolling up his sleeves, he commenced to lay on the heavy cowskin, and soon the warm, red blood (amid heart-rending shrieks from her, and horrid oaths from him) came dripping to the floor" (46). Douglass' use of cogent imagery disseminates a feeling of remorse towards the woman. Another example is of Douglass' grandmother who is left abandoned in the middle of the woods to die; she serves her entire life to a family, yet no one feels any sorrow when she is deserted.
Within the memoir there are many instances in which a slave owner committed an atrocious act; ironically, Douglass capitalizes on the misfortune he experienced. For example, Douglass, in which he is a young slave hand, writes "I have often been awakened at dawn of day by the most heart-rending shrieks of an own aunt of mine, whom [the slave master] used to tie up to a joist, and whip upon her naked back until she was literally covered with blood" (Douglass 51). This intense and brutal depiction of a whipping is designed to inflict an emotional response through word choice. Douglass acquires this lifelike description through his diction. Certain words and phrases such as "...heart-rending shrieks...", "...whip upon her naked back...", and "...covered in blood..." are both explicit and vivid to such an extent that the reader has no choice but to picture the grotesque scene in his or her mind.
She talks about how she was treated by Dr. Flint " But Dr. Flint swore he would kill me, if I was not as silent as the grave." Although in Jacobs narrative she was treated, in Douglass' his grandmother was whipped "The louder she screamed, the harder he whipped, and where the blood ran fastest, there he whipped the longest." He also talks about how bad women had it "He would whip her to make her scream, and whip her to make her hush; and not until overcome, would he cease to swing the blood-clooted cowskin." Then he talks about how slavery was like hell "It was the blood-stained gate, the entrance to the hell of slavery, through which I was about to pass."
