20. I, Too by Langston Hughes
I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.
Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed--
I, too, am America.

21. Have you ever heard of the Scopes Monkey Trial
Have you ever heard of the Scopes Monkey Trial? If not you should write down what it was about.

23. On May 5, 1920, Niccola Sacco  and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, both Italian immigrants, radicals, labor activists, and World War I resistors, were arrested for two payroll robberies, one of which involved a double murder in the Boston suburbs. The ensuing trial became one of the most famous throughout US history and served as a rallying point for the Left. Debate over the trial’s fairness and allegations that the men were victims of a frame-up aimed at eliminating "reds" spurned nationwide dialog about the red scare. After a brief and poorly conducted trial, the men were sentenced to death. However, numerous appeals and a mass support movement pushed the trial to an international level.   After a long imprisonment and a failed attempt at a gubernatorial pardon, the men were executed in 1927 amid mass protest.  Fifty years later, Sacco and Vanzetti received a proclamation from then Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis that effectively absolved them of the crimes.

24. Sacco and Vanzetti 1) Why were Sacco and Vanzetti targeted?
2) How did the media portray the case?
