She explains the struggle of having to even bring up the topics of police brutality and black people. She is in a battle with herself of knowing when the time is right to explain to her child that society is making the police and black man a problem. A problem that many have died over. Shooting unarmed black men because of suspicion not facts. All of the

“The Black Finger” Angelina Grimke’s poem‚ “The Black Finger” is one of the shortest poems that we have read this year. As far as I’m concerned‚ it is also one of the most intriguing poems that we have read this year. I have read the poem at least thirty or forty times trying to pick up on new things that I may have missed before.

Another very present theme in Edgar Allan Poe’s life and in his writing is alcohol abuse. There are several examples of this throughout Poe’s writing but it is especially evident in The Black Cat and The Cask of Amontillado.
