In a minimum of 150 words, compare and contrast the use of metaphor in the poems "women" and "caged bird."

Explanation:

"Women" uses metaphor in a very subtle way. In fact, without deep analysis, you might think there are no metaphors. However, the author does compare the women's past to a book. The back pages are the past, the upcoming pages are the future. "Caged Bird" uses metaphor a lot more freely. The author uses birds to reference to the African-American people. By using birds as a metaphor for African-Americans, the poet is able to use some other deeply moving imagery. For example, the cage refers to the enslavement of the African-Americans.

I'm always happy to help :)

racism is the belief in the superiority of one race over another, which often results in discrimination and prejudice towards people based on their race or ethnicity. the use of the term "racism" does not easily fall under a single definition.

explanation:

it is the background information on the characters and setting explained at the beginning of the story. the exposition will often have information about events that happened before the story began. the exposition is often the very first part of the plot.
