How are the two passages similar? both the poem and the essay explain that mexican children feel superior to anglo-americans. both the poem and essay show that immigrants and their children are pressured to forget their heritage. both the poem and the essay describe how immigrant children come to the united states. both the poem and the essay encourage teachers to support a multicultural education in border communities?

Had to look for the missing details and here is my answer.

So the passages that are being referred here are from Pat Mora’s poem quoted in "The Leader in the Mirror" and Mora’s essay "The Leader in the Mirror". Between these two passages presented, how these two are similar is that both of the essay and the poem convey that immigrants and their children are forced to forget their heritage. The answer to this would be the second option. Hope this helps.
