from "Piano Obsession" by Ibtisam Barakat Reem is a Palestinian girl who attends a school for refugees, operated by the United Nations. She befriends a girl named Rania, who introduces her to the piano. Read the passage carefully. Then, answer the essay prompt. 1 Rania led me to an elephant-sized piano that squatted serenely in a corner of the church. Before I touched the piano, the sight of it touched me. It reminded me of the first and only time I had visited a zoo. I twirled with delight. 2 A notebook filled with lines and bead-sized dots had been left open. “These are notes. One can read them like numbers in a math book. They translate to phrases, passages, long songs,” she explained. 3 Songs? Now the beads became birds on the page, long rows on electric wires, singing. Was it possible that these beads could really sing like birds? What must I do to make them do it? 4 “Open the lid,” she said. A large number of black and white teeth smiled at me. I became more excited, happy, afraid, all at once. The lid was more of a lip. And I instantly knew why the piano might sing, why the notes could be more than a row of birds. The piano could be a person who loves numbers. 5 Rania’s father came over to watch us. He noticed the stunned look on my face. “You don’t have to read the beads. Just sit down; play the keys.” I remained reluctant. “There are no rules for playing,” he explained. “You don’t have to make songs. Just make music.” He shut the bead book. 6 “There are no teachers here. This is not a school,” he encouraged. “I am a church guard. I did not finish my schooling because I didn’t like homework or teachers. Just play like a child would.” 7 I raised a finger as though it were a foot about to enter a new world. I dipped my finger onto a white bar. I dipped other fingers. All dropped inside a sweet, liquid sound. The white and black might have been sugar wafers, or chocolate bars for a person’s ears. I licked my fingers. 8 Rania and her father applauded. A thrill of importanc plz right it as an essay but not that long HURRY PLZ

How should we learn about the legacy and impact of slavery?
Answer:
In 2006, I gave some lectures at Harvard during which I called for a month, a week -- a day even -- of collective mourning for the millions whose souls still cry for proper burial and mourning rites. These lectures have now been published under the title: Something Torn and New. I did not know then that others were thinking along the same lines. I am glad that this day is being commemorated at the United Nations, but it should be actively observed in the whole world, as slave trade and plantation slavery were of prime importance in the making of the modern world. But what was a gain for the world, especially in the West, was a loss for Africa. Here I am not simply talking about the loss of human lives, power, resources, the economic loss for Africa and gain for the world: Slave trade and slavery were a historical trauma whose consequences on the African psyche have never been properly explored.
It is well known that both a person who perpetrates trauma and one who experiences it can often shut the trauma in a psychic tomb, acting as if it never happened. The recipient does not mourn the loss and the perpetrator does not acknowledge the crime, for you cannot mourn a loss or acknowledge a crime you deny. This can occur at a community level, where horror committed to a group is kept in a collective psychic tomb, its reception and perpetration, passed on in silence, which of course means that there is no real closure and the wound festers inside to haunt the future.
The West has never properly acknowledged this crime against humanity, for to acknowledge is to accept responsibility for the crime and its consequences. One can, of course, see why the perpetrator of a crime may want to forget it: uneasy lies the crown on the heads of they who have committed crimes against humanity. But post-colonial Africa has also never properly mourned this trauma on its own continent as well as its diasporic communities in the Caribbean and America. In Africa and the world, slave trade and plantation slavery have never been accepted in body and mind for what they were: genocide, holocaust, displacement of unprecedented historical and geographic magnitude. It was Hitlerism long before Hitler, to borrow the phraseology from Aimé Césaire in his book, Discourse on Colonialism.
The economic consequences are obvious: the most developed countries in the West are largely those whose modernity is rooted in the Transatlantic slave trade and plantation slavery. The African body was a commodity; and manpower, a cheap resource. Note that this was continued in the colonial era where, once again, African human and natural resources were cheap for the colonialist European buyer who determined the price and worth of that which he was buying. Don't we see echoes of that today in the unequal trade practices where the West still determines the price and worth of what it gets from Africa while also determining the price and worth of what it sells to Africa?
It is not a strange coincidence that the victims of slave trade and slavery on the African continent and abroad are collectively the ones experiencing underdevelopment. For example, Haiti in the 18th century was the main economic mainstay of France, the coveted price by the major European powers of the time; today it is the most economically deprived in the Western world. Haiti's story is also that of Africa and the African people as a whole. The majority of the homeless in the world still come from communities that were the victims of the slave trade and the plantation.
But that is obvious. It's the moral consequences that deeply worry me -- the negative perception of Africa and Africans by others, and the negative self-conception of Africa and Africans by Africans. Those two conceptions have common ground in the devaluation of African lives. Massacres and genocide can happen in Africa, as in the case of Rwanda, with the world looking on. African governments can mow down their people and go to bed and sleep soundly as if nothing has happened; politicians who settle political disputes by inciting ethnic cleansing (and counter-ethnic cleansing) can go to sleep with consciences undisturbed by what they have brought about. Any life lost is, of course, horrifying, but we have seen how frantic the world and Africa become if a white European hostage is missing or meets death in Africa. It shows an indifference towards the descendants of slaves and deep concern for the descendants of slave owners.

Describe the changes in American culture in the following areas during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries:
-Environmental preservation
-Popular sports
-Art
Answer:
Environmental preservation
Explanation:
Popular Sports and Art weren't as culturally prominent until the 1920s. Environmental Protection started around the second Industrial Revolution because factories were using way too many resources. Environmentalists wanted to make sure future generations had natural resources to exhaust too. Theodore Roosevelt made regulations forbidding hunting of endangered animals and tree planting programs to make sure we would have a fresh cycle of lumber instead of waiting fifty years for wood to grow.
Answer:
During the late 19th century many environmental problems caused changes and created public awareness. One problem was that the country could soon run out of vital natural resources like wood. This led many people to join the “conservation movement” in the early 20th century in order for future generations to have enough supplies that were made from raw materials. Another problem was the fate of the “wilderness”, so many organizations began to fight for undeveloped lands should be preserved. Lastly, one big problem was pollution. This issue was a big threat to the fast-growing cities, which led to efforts in order to improve the urban environment. There were also some changes and the popular sports. During the late 19th century the Olympic started to become an international spectacle. Apart from that there were also many games like baseball that started to grow in popularity. Due to many segregational beliefs during this time there were many only African American teams that were created.
One last thing that changed during the nineteenth and twentieth century was the art of the United States. Abstract expressionist movements started after World War II. Later came minimalism and pop art.

What can you infer about the school's educational and social goals,
based on Dove's experiences?
Plz help!!
Answer:
Based on Dove’s experiences, it can be inferred that the school’s educational and social goals were based on the male-dominant European American culture of the time; a culture of which Dove was not familiar. They punished her for actions that did not reflect the perfect image that the school had created of its students, and did not allow her to speak in her native language. Her goals and the school's goals did not align, causing conflict and her "failure" educationally. Dove also did not conform to the social goals taught by the school, as she was eventually married to a man, in an attempt to embrace the social norms of the school she was taught at. The marriage resulted in failure, and ended shortly. The goals of the school, both educationally and socially, were not intended to embrace individuality, but to develop a sense of similarity between the different students raised in that environment, in an attempt to force them to fit the perfect picture of what an American should be.
Did the columbian exchange primarily help or hurt the world?
Answer:
The Columbian Exchange affected the world by mixing things that had been only in the "Old World" with things that had been only in the "New World."
