Shows the distrust in Henrietta's doctors.

The author reinforces the idea that the town was so poor that even education was limited.

The author uses imagery, again, to depict the poor-looking town.

The author uses hyperbole, by exaggerating the quietness of the town even on Main Street, a street that should continuously be busy.

Skloot references the infamous War on Drugs to exemplify that Clover's population was still relatively small.

In this line, the author uses imagery to depict the scene and hint that the area is old and beaten down.

Notice that the “thief known as racism” is “robbing people of liberty” — a pretty big thing to lose!

They wanted enslaving person to believe that black people are fit for slavery which for me they are not even though they wanted to make them to believe they are.

Honestly is disgusted how they treat black people like come on they are also human they deserved the amount of respect.

He saying he wants us to understand how racism impact us today and all over the world because racism is one thing that we should take it serious because many people are getting killed.

Bigly big.

I feel like this stanza creates tension because its talking about how the guy doesn't really understand that the girl likes him

Maybe this means that the man she was walking with was handsome, and that's why girls where staring

I feel like the woman is listening to everything the man is saying and is understanding him, but I also think she feels that he doesn't understand that she likes him. Maybe she has been dropping hints and he hasnt caught on yet.

I agree, I thought the image would be at night and more modern like. I also thought the image would mainly focus on two people.

I agree. The tone shifts, but the content is the same. HOWEVER, that tonal shift clues you in to the content that you just skipped over, and makes you re-read the first five lines.

Yes! I hear the repetition of the “h” that you're talking about in the title, “Harlem Hopscotch”; and the “g” in “Good things for the ones that's got”; and the “c” in “Curse and cry”.

These are verbs. But, yes, Kwame Alexander's writing puts emphasis on the verbs.

yes especially in the 20's 30's 40's.

it really is.

This poem is good how he enjoy doing thing in texas and the fresh air music and his people.

This women is so protective and care for her son life what a good mother she is.

I feel bad for the mother she doesn't want her baby to get hurt or kill.

The mother is scary for her kid life she doesn't want anything to happen to her son.

you could tell how she change her mood real quick.

she feel upset.

I think every parents or different how they want to raised their kids yes the mother is strict but she want the best for her kids.

I guess he's lived there for his whole life because he really talks about his town.

NY Deli

there is a lot of imagery in this poem in the way he is describing it and just like saying how much he cherishes.

the pattern is how he says old town my town repeatedly and i think like he was trying to make like a connection or something.

kinda reminds me of a tik tok of this girl who keeps posting a tik tok and keeps being repetitive and keeps saying the same thing in each video.

seems likes he loves his town. because he mentions it so many times. ” old town” ” my town “

wonder what he means when he says north town my town. Like does he mean north of his town or something i don't know.

what I feel is the need to nod my head because this poem is truly a musical, when she rhymes Maya pleasures the readers by rhyming, so maybe that's why she rhyme in this poem.

Maybe, Hopscotch represents the struggles of black life so when she loses, she won because she is now escaping the struggles of life.

Yes, I see the rhyme in the first two lines of each stanza. Rhyme makes me hear the text’s ‘voice’, and feel its physical effect in my body.

Hopscotch would no way be enough of an escape, given the harshness of the reality you're talking about. And to suggest that it would trivializes people's “struggles of life”.

I like this interpretation.

Kwame Alexander's verbs don't sound calm to me: “Climb”, “Swim”, “Dance”, “coming and going”… they all sound busy and active. Also, there's no tree in this poem.

Austin is not a person. It's a city in Texas.

How come? What is it about these three words (“in Austin, Texas”) that reminds you of traveling?

I don't get it. If you have big feet, why didn't they call you “Big Foot”?

So?

I agree. “Soul” does sound like a soft word. The “S” and the “L” are both soft sounds.

I like that you see clearly why it's important to study the history of racism.

This overall poem kind of has the nyc vibe to it. And this is significant because it shows the importance of how a place can spark pleasure in someones heart.

I feel like the tone the author has in this sentence is stronger. Or more aggressive.

i think

connection

Yes. And to do that, we have to go back 600 years or so.

I feel like the author is using a hyperbole because he says shrieks. He is relating the police sirens to shrieking which is exagaration to a say how loud the sirens are.

Dr. Bledsoe measures

Dr. Bledsoe anger

Parts of this poems shows different parts of nyc. It shows 145th bridge and high bridge.

The punctuation in this line creates a sense of order. How after describing what happened at that exact time, now he is moving on to describing what he sees.

It caused me to re-read it because at this point it seems as if they don't want to be at the river. Yet it also does seems like they do want to be at the river.

Some of the sentences shows a lot of traits of the Bronx. I really like that the author does this he shows how the Bronx is and sometimes in poems or story's the reader cant really imagine the things being said happening. But I can imagine this happening

There is a good representation of the word above. The poem keeps a steady flow by using above at the beginning of a lot of sentences.

Covid-19 in CA

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

The thought we imagine a character has is how everything stopped for a moment. That he was able to notice that both of their breathes caught at the same time.

In this moment it seems like it was a time where the whole world just disappears. It was just her and him there in the river.

This is way they described the Detroit River and it sounds so dirty. It makes it seems like its just a lot of water that's dirty.

This really helps you to envision where they are at. Also, I could really see it because I have been on a gray coarse beach before.

Mood of the poem

The poem has this descriptive language that gives me an idea of the setting imagery. The description reminds me of an old town.

the last word of every 2nd and 4th line in each stanza rhymes. I love when poems subtly rhyme its so satisfying but not cheesy.

this whole poem didn't really sound like a traditional poem. it sounded a lot like a song. like when I was reading it I couldn't help it but perceive it as a song.

It's so cool to see what union square looked like in 1911.
