How does the poet creat contrast in the poem 'small passing' referring to the first section? Lines 1-35
I know what the contrast is. But not sure how to explain how it is created.
So the contrast would be how a mother of a white child has. Lost her baby and should not mourn, while the mothers of their black children "lost" their own children by having to come and work for white people and left their own children behind to look after the white children.

Yes, that's one very good contrast.
