Analysis of Cesar Vallejo's Poem, Our Daily Bread (Translated by James Wright) I was in a turmoil when I read and reread "Our Daily Bread." This poem has a lot of emotions involved in it. Feelings of hunger, sadness, anger, guilt, and warmth are felt through out the poem. In the first stanza, the speaker sets the scene with "Damp earth of the cemetery," "City of winter," "mordant crusade." Especially when the speaker speaks of "the fragrance of the precious blood," we feel coldness, loneliness

The journey of an outcast, where people that are not the norm, people that are separated, and people also that stands out in regular life, shouldn’t be treated differently, even though they may seem out of the norm. The majority of people don’t understand why these outsiders do this. In the novel, The Chrysalids by John Wyndham and the film The Fifth Element directed by Luc Besson, are both outstanding examples of the three main arguments of the archetypal outcast. First, all outcasts have a different
Both of the speeches, Martin Luther King's and Cesar Chavez', are powerful peices and communicate one vision: equality. King and Chavez have two very different styles of writing but the message from both is simmilar. for example both king and chavez discuss how their people are discriminated against because of their skin color, and how their people have neither the right to vote in the the south, nor the will to vote in the north , and in Chavez' situation, to have their vote counted. however similar
Can one person really make a difference in the world? Far too many people think not, and they sell themselves far too short. A wave of despair leads capable people to underestimate the power of their voice and the strength of their ideals.
