The lifestyle of the whites and the blacks in the United States
SUMMARY;
Godwin analyses about the lifestyle of the whites and the Negros [blacks] in the United States. The main point that comes out clear is that color is not a human or a personality reality; it is a political reality. The white people in the country do have a lot in learning how to accept and love themselves and each other, while the Negros problem will no longer exist, for it will no longer be needed. Godwin gives examples by explaining how the Negros experience of the white cannot possibly create him any respect for the standards by which the white world claims to live in. Negros, who were neither doltish nor servile, did not have any feeling of guilt that they were doing the wrong thing when they got to rob the whites. Godwin’s main text of point explains the religion based in the United States among the whites and the Negros, too, between Islam and Christianity during his period of adulthood. I think after reading the readers should believe in equality and love for humanity.
ANALYSIS;
”The fire next time ”is useful since it brings out a clear understanding to the people about the theme of virtue and inequality. He wants people to love each other and love themselves or else there will be more violence thus targeting the young and middle-aged generations who might think of relocating to the U.S.The tone of the story is smooth and tender, nostalgic as well cautionary in delivering a lesson learned to the other citizens of other Nations The style used is of sound devices in that the author has a rhythm, foreshadow and repetition to insist on a specific message, the work is built under imagery by creating walls when discussing the difficulties faced by black people in America. A somber and precautionary mood characterizes the choice and the content due to the limitations faced by black Americans, which works perfectly to the intended audience.
RESPONSE/REACTION;
Baldwin’sBaldwin’s main points are that the colored people of America are set up for failure and are expected to follow along. He also talks about making change as with more violent groups will only escalate. The text was so positive since it gives knowledge on what is going on in the U.S. between the whites and the blacks, to freely break from the racial problems and that is why the Baldwin gives advises to his nephew on the introductory of the book to accept the white people how they are and most important is to accept them with love . Baldwin reflects on how it is difficult for the white people Baldwin’sBaldwin’s arguments and ideas gives a clear convincement from the old times and what he experienced personally in the streets of the Americans emotionally, physically, and mentally. According to the text, this changed my thinking issue of race and racism in the U.S.The Americans need to show love and support to each other since racism/race has a profound effect on peoples people’s health, welfare, affection to peoples feeling, it also hurts the freedom among the people, and it also creates hostility where people don’t trust each other and thus gives a challenge to the society in terms of equality and fairness. I would recommend this book, the fire next time to any human being out there, for him or her to understand and be ready to face any challenges if he or she is thinking of relocating to another country, especially the U.S. since it gives a broader explanation of the nation.
OPTIONAL;
Baldwin gives a clear comprehension of the current pandemic by reflecting on how difficult it is for the white people to have a break from their racial prejudices, the book “the fire next time also explains the inequality between the blacks and the whites, it also addresses the significance of Christianity since they are the ones who helped Baldwin avoid the fates of the streets
of which he remained grateful to them, but later he left the Christian church and suggested America should leave the Christian teachings to even accept their past.
