Write a 125-word paragraph explaining your views about affirmative action.

So for years, black people were greatly mistreated. If everyone used "affirmative action" right after slavery ended, this would cause a lot of conflicts. They would start getting special treatment and white people would get very mad and jealous. This would end up with the kkk and everything would be just like it was, in this instance. Say you bullied a kid for six years in elementary and then you realized that's awful so to make it up, you bypass all your friends and you give this kid the world. Your friends are going to get mad and most likely bully that kid because of the insecurity and jealousy they're feeling. I just think if you treat someone bad, fix it by treating them like a normal human being. Like anyone else.

Explanation:

change it if you want

Since affirmative action favors those who tend to suffer from discrimination, especially in relation to employment or education; positive discrimination, I agree with it to an extent. People who are discriminated shouldn't be overly favored but not treated unfairly.  People who are suffer discrimination should have something helping them such as affirmative action. 

The Harlem Renaissance:

describes the quest by writers like Claude McKay to locate the roots of the black experience.

Explanation:

The Harlem Renaissance was a social, intellectual, artistic, movement that happened in new york city in the 1920s. Even though it was very important it was not recognized by the majority of the population because of the context. First, the civil war had just ended, therefore the racial discrimination behaviors from the majority of the population didn't recognize it. Therefore Claude McKay and other writers gave voice to the participants of the movement, which expressed the feelings of the African American population.
