Read the following excerpt from "notes of a native son" by james baldwin:
[i]n the light of this idea, it goes without saying that
injustice is a commonplace. but this did not mean that one
could be complacent, for the second idea was of equal
power: that one must never, in one's own life, accept these
injustices as commonplace but must fight them with all
one's strength. this fight begins, however, in the heart and
it now had been laid to my charge to keep my own heart
free of hatred and despair. this intimation made my heart
heavy and, now that my father was irrecoverable, i wished
that he had been beside me so that i could have searched
his face for the answers which only the future would give
me now

What effect is created by the plaque posted on the gate at the entrance to the family's home in nadine gordimer's "once upon a time"? the words written on the plaque offer readers a foreshadowing of the story's outcome without revealing the actual conclusion, the author's use of flashback allows readers to understand what is at the heart of the issues of encroachment in the suburban neighborhood the repetition of the words written on the plaque presents an oxymoron because readers already sense that the plaque has been ineffective in warding off intruders. the author introduces a paradox in which readers are presented with a warning notice when no actual infraction has taken place.
