Which excerpt from black boy best reflects the way in which wright’s knowledge of history and culture influence his views on his father?

a. when i awakened one morning my mother told me that we were going to see a judge who would make my father support me and my brother. an hour later all three of us were sitting in a huge crowded room.

b. for some reason the entire thing struck me as being useless; i felt that if my father were going to feed me, then he would have done so regardless of what a judge said to him. and i did not want my father to feed me.

c. my father and a strange woman were sitting before a bright fire that blazed in a grate. my mother and i were standing about six feet away, as though we were afraid to approach them any closer.

d. from far beyond the horizons that bound this bleak plantation there had come to me through my living the knowledge that my father was a black peasant who had gone to the city seeking life, but who had failed in the city; a black peasant whose life had been hopelessly snarled in the city.

the answer as far as edgenuity goes is d. : )

In a 10-12 sentence response-style paragraph, explore the degree to which you agree or disagree with faulkner’s message. “i believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. he is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. the poet's, the writer's, duty is to write about these things. it is his privilege to man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. the poet's voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to him endure and prevail” (faulkner 773-775).
