What does the first line in this stanza from old ironsides by oliver wendell holmes tell the reader about the ship

i have read the novel roll of thunder hear my cry by mildred d. taylor.

1. this isn't like any other story i've read or watched because it is about a black family in mississippi right after slavery in the u.s. had become illegal. most of the novels i have read were about slavery. another point is that the author of the novel used symbolism in a way i haven't seen before. for example she uses thunder as something negative meaning something bad will happen. but by the end of the novel, she made thunder a good thing.

2.   one character that changed during the novel was stacey. stacey is the eldest child of the black logan family. around the begging of the novel stacey was avoiding the white boy jeremy simms. he had a dislike for jeremy's family. but at the end of the novel stacey began to like jeremy.

3. the author starts the novel with the problem that the children of the logan family have to avoid the white kid school bus while walking to school.

explanation:

b the manazanar relocation center was located in california. it was used to keep japanise from spying on america.

the reasons for the harsh treatment, is because japan used tourist to take pictures and snapshots of pearl harbor.

many americans were afraid that the japanise would betray them for their mother country. through and means necessary. this means that, the leadership in japan is a lot different than it is here. culture and family ties has much to do with their outlook and worldview.
