Hey guys this is about my previous question:

Question

I have trouble finding two texts that DISPLAY intolerance against gender, sexual activity, race/culture, disabled people etc.

So, for instance a poem about the hatred for black people or the way the a 'Ku Klux Klan' member shows his intolerance for homosexuals or black people. (I'm just making up the examples, not trying to be offensive).

Need two different texts:
short stories, newspaper/magazine articles, song lyrics, plays, films, artwork, advertisement, novel, cartoons and/or poems.

Pleeeeaassee help!! :( :(

Answer 1

I've never heard of anything like this in poetry or short stories. There may be some, but I've never read it.

However, if you want to read the work of two poets and a novelist, you'll find how they combatted those ugly attitudes.

Answer 2

You are asking for examples of mean people? I am more interested in your etc category. Does that include liberal Democrats? Does that include socialists? Does that include Atheists? Does it include pregnant teens?

Mean people are mean, period. Often they are ethnocentric (look that word up), and often they are of limited civility (look that word up). http://allpoetry.com/poem/422021

And often, hate is just generated within a person looking for perfection in the world, and seeing themselves.

Now to your question: I am not really certain what you want.

Answer 3

Read these, by Langston Hughes:

http://famouspoetsandpoems.com/poets/langston_hughes/poems/16945
and
http://famouspoetsandpoems.com/poets/langston_hughes/poems/16947

Then read the rest of his that are linked here:
http://famouspoetsandpoems.com/poets/langston_hughes/poems

You should pick up on his theme quite easily. What does this body of work tell you about how HE was treated? Be sure to read that biography, too.
