What does the Fourth of July represent to African American living in the 1850s
Answer:
To some, celebrations of American independence on July 4 are a reminder of the country’s hypocrisy on the matter of freedom, as slavery played a key role in the nation’s history; even today, America’s history of racism is still being written, while other forms of modern-day slavery persist in the U.S. and around the world
Reflective essay on stranger in the village
Answer:
"STRANGER IN THE VILLAGE"
by James Baldwin
From all available evidence no black man had ever set foot in this tiny Swiss village before I
came. I was told before arriving that I would probably be a "sight" for the village; I took this to mean that
people of my complexion were rarely seen in Switzerland, and also that city people are always something
of a "sight" outside of the city. It did not occur to me-possibly because I am an American-that there could
be people anywhere who had never seen a Negro.
It is a fact that cannot be explained on the basis of the inaccessibility of the village. The village is
very high, but it is only four hours from Milan and three hours from Lausanne. It is true that it is virtually
unknown. Few people making plans for a holiday would elect to come here. On the other hand, the
villagers are able, presumably, to come and go as they please - which they do: to another town at the foot
of the mountain, with a population of approximately five thousand, the nearest place to see a movie or go
to the bank. In the village there is no movie house, no bank, no library, no theater; very few radios, one
jeep, one station wagon; and at the moment, one typewriter, mine, an invention which the woman next
door to me here had never seen. There are about six hundred people living here, all Catholic- I conclude
this from the fact that the Catholic church is open all year round, whereas the Protestant chapel, set off on
a hill a little removed from the village, is open only in the summertime when the tourists arrive. There are
four or five hotels, all closed now, and four or five bistros, of which, however, only two do any business
during the winter. These two do not do a great deal, for life in the village seems to end around nine or ten
o'clock. There are a few stores, butcher, baker, epicerie, a hardware store, and a money-changer-who
cannot change travelers' checks, but must send them down to the bank, an operation which takes two or
three days. There is something called the Ballet Haus, closed in the winter and used for God knows what,
certainly not ballet, during the summer. There seems to be only one schoolhouse in the village, and this
for the quite young children; I suppose this to mean that their older brothers and sisters at some point
descend from these mountains in order to complete their education-possibly, again, to the town just
below. The landscape is absolutely forbidding, mountains towering on all four sides, ice and snow as far
as the eye can reach. In this white wilderness, men and women and children move all day, carrying
washing, wood, buckets of milk or water, sometimes skiing on Sunday afternoons. All week long boys
and young men are to be seen shoveling snow off the rooftops, or dragging wood down from the forest in
sleds.
The village's only real attraction, which explains the tourist season, is the hot spring water. A
disquietingly high proportion of these tourists are cripples, or semi- cripples, who come year after yearfrom other parts of Switzerland, usually-to take the waters. This lends the village, at the height of the
season, a rather terrifying air of sanctity, as though it were a lesser Lourdes. There is often something
beautiful, there is always something awful, in the spectacle of a person who has lost one of his faculties, a
faculty he never questioned until it was gone, and who struggles to recover it. Yet people remain people,
on crutches or indeed on deathbeds; and wherever I passed, the first summer I was here, among the native
villagers or among the lame, a wind passed with me-of astonishment, curiosity, amusement and outrage.
That first summer I stayed two weeks and never intended to return. But I did return in the winter, to work;
the village offers, obviously, no distractions whatever and has the further advantage of being extremely
cheap. Now it is winter again, a year later, and I am here again. Everyone in the village knows my name,

This scene from "Doctor Zhivago" (made in 1965) depicts life in Russia during the Bolshevik Revolution. The Bolshevik Revolution was an uprising in Russia against the Tsarist Monarchy system which had instituted unfair practices against peasants. The movie is set in 1918. World War I has ended, but the violent Bolshevik Revolution is underway.
After treating soldiers on the front lines of war, the main character, Dr. Zhivago, returns to his family home in Moscow to find it full of people who he does not know. His home has been confiscated by the new Soviet government and divided into apartments. The 13 families that live there are Revolutionaries, and he is concerned that if he does not say the correct thing to the Revolutionaries, he, his wife, and their son may be killed.
Are there any places in the world today where people have to be careful about what they say? If so, where is this true? How important is freedom of speech to you?
