On march 26th in class we we read a poem called ¨Harlem¨ and we were asked to describe what claims the author made about america. And then about what it claims bout dreams. A claim about it would be ¨Langstons Hughes describes how dreams succeed in America.¨ Our class came up with themes that ¨In the american dream everyone does what they want and they´re happy about it.¨ And ¨American citizens have a niche to fill which compels them to be happy.¨ And ¨Through unity and togetherness Americans are happy.¨
This helps in real life when you´re trying to pick out the themes of authors and what they are claiming and people who are reading a speech or doing public speaking or reading and article.
