This intense emotional response was not what I expected my reaction to be going into this assignment. Yet‚ I can’t

    In Paul Laurence Dunbar’s‚ “We Wear the Mask”‚ Louis Armstrong’s‚ “Black and Blue”‚ and Ralph Ellison’s‚ Invisible Man‚ all three pieces share a resemblance‚ because all the poems show people being broken or sad from the inside‚ but lying and faking a smile on the outside. In “Black or Blue”‚ Armstrong sings‚ “I’m hurt inside‚ but that don’t help my case” (Armstrong 12). Invisible‚ who is the protagonist in Invisible Man‚ doesn’t follow the “rule” until the book is nearing the end. People prefer

    Shall We Walk? by Pura Santillan-Castrence This essay was written during the Japanese Occupation but it is as relevant today as it was then.
