Answer:
The white missionaries did not care much about the traditions and customs of the people of Umuofia. They believe in "civilizing" the clan and bringing "Christianity" to them, bringing along power and government with that. This led to a discord between the supporters of the new religion and that of the old, unrelenting men such as Okonkwo. Despite the clan having their own government and customs, the white men did not care about that and instead began to influence the men and women into 'changing sides' and pitting their 'traditional beliefs' against the new religion.
Explanation:
Chinua Achebe's "Things Fall Apart," tells the story of Okonkwo and in general the lives of the Igbo culture. The story delves into the African tribe's traditional life and the subsequent changes that they were made to undergo with the arrival of white missionaries.
The white missionaries arrived and began influencing the young men and women into believing in their Christian faith. This not only disrupted the faith of the tribespeople but also disfigured and dismembered the community strength of the whole clan. It led to discord between the traditional customs against the new religion. Moreover, with the new religion came the influence of money and power, with the "superior" white men appointing certain men who support them as the powerful ones, the ones with authority, which further encouraged the men to be aligned with them, thus shunning their tradition and beliefs. And in doing so, the white men cared not for the beliefs of the clan but more about their success in "civilizing" the tribes and bringing them to "light".
Augustus compares his cancer to a battle and to war but the metaphor doesn’t quite work, especially when he says, “My cancer is me.” Explain what he means by this statement and his later statement about dying with glory
Answer:
cancer is a strange mutation of cells. it is a killer that was not stopped in the age of the Roman Empire, and Augustus may have been close in a medical standpoint. The cancer was his cells, and it most certainly was a battle. Dying by cancer meant dying without honor or bravery. Men would rather die of battle scars or wounds than die sitting on a couch sick. Augustus was an honorable caesar, so he would not want to die for dishonorable reasons like a disease.

Direct characterization can be shown through the
description of one or more characters
dialogue between two or more characters
thoughts of one or more characters
actions of one or more characters
Answer:
description of one or more characters
Explanation:
Direct characterization is also known as explicit characterization as it is a straightforward description of the character’s appearance or personality. It means that the writer directly states how the character looks and acts. For example, it can be “She was very tall and had brown hair” or “He was a loud, daring person”.
It is the opposite of indirect characterization, which means the writer tries to explain the character’s traits and personality through their actions, thoughts, responses, the way they dress, etc.
To compare them in the example: direct characterization would be saying “She was very poor”. Indirect characterization would be “She wore old clothes handed to her by her older sister. She could never afford to go with us to the cinema.”

In America alone, about 40% of lgbtq+ youth are suicidal. Despite America's acceptance of lgbtq+ people, compared to other countries, the community lacks human rights. The lgbtq+ community faces discrimination in various ways. For example, it wasn't until 2015 that the U.S. legalized same-sex marriages; this sounds like progress, but when you consider that heterosexual marriages were never illegal or even frowned upon, you might realize the issue this presents. Besides that, people of the lgbtq+ community are treated as less of a human by being refused a job, being fired, losing custody of their child/children, being denied an adoption and when they are harassed, raped, and even killed. If human rights are for everyone, then why is the lgbtq+ community being treated differently than heterosexuals? Many people use religion as an excuse for their hatred of the lgbtq+ community, and as Americans, we have the right to choose what religion we follow, but the fact of the matter is that no one has the right to hate others.

"Thought you won't leave my side
But I guess you lied to me
I thought you was down to ride
But ain't nobody ride but me
And they all turned their backs on me
So I think it's time to say
My goodbye, to all of your lies
(Let me take that back)
You gave me this feeling that I've never felt before
And I deserved it, I know I deserved it
It became somethin' that's impossible to ignore
And I can't take it
I was wonderin' maybe, can I have back my baby?
If I did somethin' special, would that make me look crazy?
If you ask me, I'm ready
Can I ask you, are you ready?
To see the new me (Woah)
I changed cause you're my everything, my everything
You told me I was the first you ever felt in love with
And I can say the same about you
People in my past, they did me dirty, broke my heart
But when I came across you, you were different
I was wonderin', can I fix my mistakes?
