"they'll taunt and goad you," mr. rickey said. "they'll do anything to make you react. they'll try to provoke a race riot in the ballpark. this is the way to prove to the public that a negro should not be allowed in the major league. this is the way to frighten the fans and make them afraid to attend the games." what is the author’s purpose for including these paragraphs? to inform readers about the history of race riots at american ballparks to inform readers about the challenges rickey and robinson expect to face to persuade readers that all races should be treated equally in american sports to entertain readers with a story about a fight between ricky and robinson

Which sentence from this passage explains what the main characters do in rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead? "tom stoppard's play, rosencrantz and guildenstern are dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: shakespeare's hamlet and samuel beckett's waiting for godot." "as in beckett's play, rosencrantz and guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time." "these same two characters were also featured in a parody of hamlet, the short comic play by w. s. gilbert entitled rosencrantz and guildenstern."
