1. Color Blindness
"" In other words, if the colored people do not "wear the mask,"" then the world will not be able to live in a secure and dream life. Those feelings are similar to the feelings of a slave brought to America.
Phillis Wheatley explicates in "On Being Brought from Africa to America- the unknown world of a nave and innocent slave that discovers the sinfulness eyes of American people towards African Americans. According to Wheatley, fate brought her to America, demonstrated by "mercy,"" - the world of mystery, the world of opportunities - from her "pagan land."" The "pagan land- of the end of the very first verse is connected to the "benighted soul- of Wheatley at the beginning of the second verse. A cross through the first two verses denotes the anger of the slave being arrested at the front line. A "pagan land- has a negative sense as it has for her "benighted soul."" Both are expressing darkness and melancholy. Similar to Dunbar's poem, those words express the closing ness of black people. Wearing a mask is closing and covering your soul and your face towards the white race. There is a shame of being black and the mask helps to act as a white person. What is more, the three poems use a same guidance of relieves and delight; Wheatley uses "God,"" "Savior- and "Christians."" Dunbar employs a proclamation "O great Christ,"" and Cullen indirectly refers to the above guidance using the month of December, when Jesus Christ was born. Furthermore, Wheatley's poem uses painful and negativistic words to illustrate the hardship of being an African, a "Negro."" "Sable race,"" "scornful eye,"" "diabolic dyed color,"" "Negroes- and "black as Cain- are words that express the darkness of the soul of African as describing black as a "sable race."" Also, "Their color is a diabolic dye- is a hatred expression of the highest white race that affirms their race as a nature race and not tinted in another dirty color.
