First listen and watch the music video ‘this is America’ in the link below https://youtu. be/nZl1IOklyNw

Write a two paragraph response to the following question:

What claim is Childish Gambino making about the plight of African Americans in America?

Please use evidence from the lyrics and music video to justify your answer.
It’s not due until Monday.

(I added the lyrics so you can cite the evidence)

Read the excerpt from the building of manhattan. the heater cranked the blower handle to force air up through the fire and heat the rivets in the furiously burning bed of coals. he knew how hot the rivets were by the way their color changed. cherry-red rivets were 1,000 to 1,950 degrees fahrenheit. at the right moment he grabbed one in his tongs and tossed it to the catcher. which phrase cannot be changed in a paraphrase of this text? “the furiously burning bed of coals” “by the way their color changed” “1,000 to 1,950 degrees fahrenheit” “force air up through the fire and heat”
