What message is Amanda Gorman trying to convey about the nation? Is she successful? Explain.

1. She is trying to convey the message that country has undergone turbulent times but that it must remain strong and united so that a better nation can be left for the children yet unborn.

2. She was successful in passing this message.

Explanation:

Amanda Gorman in her inaugural poem, "The Hill We Climb," highlighted the fact that the United States has seen troublesome years, and this is true considering the pandemic and political tension that marked the country the past year and years before. She, however, stressed that they must remain strong and united.

She expressed believe and hope in America and its citizens for they have remained unbroken through all their challenges. She encouraged the country to 'move on to what shall be,' so as to leave a lasting legacy for their children.

A country that is bruised but whole,

benevolent but bold,

fierce and free.

We will not be turned around

or interrupted by intimidation,

because we know our inaction and inertia

will be the inheritance of the next generation.

Our blunders become their burdens.

But one thing is certain,

If we merge mercy with might,

and might with right,

then love becomes our legacy,

and change our children's birthright.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
