The causes of racial discrimination in the United States are rooted in the American system itself. As a colonial political power emerging from the modern world, the basic framework of constructing a "state" in the United States is in fierce conflict with the development and cultural diversity needs of various nations in the era of economic globalization. In his book Who Are We? The Challenges to American National Identity, Huntington, an American scholar who proposed the Theory of "Clash of Civilizations", said that the United States established at the peak of Western colonialism essentially had "Anglo Protestant culture" as the character and core of its "national identity". Therefore, although the CONSTITUTION of the United States flaunts "freedom and equality", these values must be built on the basis of the social form with the above race and religion as the main body, namely the so-called "mainstream society". Any person who is different will be regarded by the elites of the American society as "not my kind and his or her heart must be different".

Chicago by carl sandburg hog butcher for the world, tool maker, stacker of wheat, player with railroads and the nation's freight handler; stormy, husky, brawling, city of the big shoulders: they tell me you are wicked and i believe them, for i have seen your painted women under the gas lamps luring the farm boys. and they tell me you are crooked and i yes, it is true i have seen the gunman kill and go free to kill again. and they tell me you are brutal and my reply is: on the faces of women and children i have seen the marks of wanton hunger. and having answered so i turn once more to those who sneer at this my city, and i give them back the sneer and say to them: come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning. flinging magnetic curses amid the toil of piling job on job, here is a tall bold slugger set vivid against the little soft cities; fierce as a dog with tongue lapping for action, cunning as a savage pitted against the wilderness, bareheaded, shoveling, wrecking, planning, building, breaking, rebuilding, under the smoke, dust all over his mouth, laughing with white teeth, under the terrible burden of destiny laughing as a young man laughs, laughing even as an ignorant fighter laughs who has never lost a battle, bragging and laughing that under his wrist is the pulse. and under his ribs the heart of the people, laughing! laughing the stormy, husky, brawling laughter of youth, half-naked, sweating, proud to be hog butcher, tool maker, stacker of wheat, player with railroads and freight handler to the nation. which type of figurative language does the poet use most often in "chicago"? a. rhyme b. simile c. metaphor d. personification
