Read the two excerpts. "remembering to never forget: dominican republic's 'parsley massacre’” by mark memmott: as for trujillo, he stayed in power until 1961, when he was assassinated. last year, the bbc spoke with one of the army officers who killed the dictator. "the only way to get rid of him was to kill him,” gen. antonio imbert told the bbc. "a genetics of justice” by julia alvarez: on may 30, 1961, nine months after our escape from our homeland, the group of plotters with whom my father had been associated assassinated the dictator. actually, dominicans do not refer to the death as an assassination but as an ajusticiamiento, a bringing to justice. finally, after thirty-one years, trujillo was brought to justice, found guilty, and executed. but the execution was an external event, not necessarily an internal exorcism. all their lives my parents, along with a nation of dominicans, had learned the habits of repression, censorship, terror. those habits would not disappear with a few bullets and a national liberation proclamation. they would not disappear on a plane ride north that put hundreds of miles distance between the island and our apartment in new york. the subject of both passages is: the circumstances under which trujillo died. how trujillo's death affected individuals. how trujillo improved the dominican republic. what life was like under the dictatorship.

Read the excerpts from “take the tortillas out of your poetry” and “speaking arabic.” my friend had concluded that if he took his language and culture out of his poetry, he stood a better chance of receiving a fellowship. he took out his native language, the poetic patois of our reality, the rich mixture of spanish, english, pachuco and street talk which we know so well. in other words, he took the tortillas out of his poetry, which is to say he took the soul out of his poetry. at a neighborhood fair in texas, somewhere between the german oom-pah sausage stand and the mexican gorditas booth, i overheard a young man say to his friend, “i wish i had a heritage. sometimes i feel—so lonely for one.” and the tall american trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head. which best states how the structures of both excerpts support ideas about cultural diversity? each incorporates non-english words. each incorporates academic words. each incorporates offensive words. each incorporates nonsense words.
