In the excerpt from "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain" in which sentence does Hughes indicate that musicians and writers should work without any concern about judgment?
An artist must be free to choose what he does, certainly, but he must also never be afraid to do what he might
choose.
O But, to my mind, it is the duty of the younger Negro artist, if he accepts any duties at all from outsiders, to change
through the force of his art that old whispering "I want to be white," hidden in the aspirations of his people, to "Why
should I want to be white? I am a Negro-and beautiful!"
O So I am ashamed for the black poet who says, "I want to be a poet, not a Negro poet," as though his own racial
world were not as interesting as any other world.
O We build our temples for tomorrow, strong as we know how, and we stand on top of the mountain, free within
ourselves

Examine the imagery in these lines of the poem "the legend" by garrett hongo. he is asian, thai or vietnamese, and very skinny, dressed as one of the poor in rumpled suit pants and a plaid mackinaw, dingy and too large. he negotiates the slick of ice on the sidewalk by his car, opens the fairlane's back door, leans to place the laundry in, and turns, for an instant, toward the flurry of footsteps and cries of pedestrians as a boy—that's all he was— backs from the corner package store shooting a pistol, firing it, once, at the dumbfounded man who falls forward, grabbing at his chest. how does the imagery in these lines affect the reader’s experience of the poem? check all that apply. it creates a visual picture of the man. it conveys what the scene sounds like. it describes the actions of the boy. it reveals the poet’s opinion of the characters. it encourages readers to care for the characters. it shows the resolution of a conflict. it explains the reasons for the event.
