When I was around nine or ten I wrote a play which was directed by a young, white schoolteacher, a woman who . . . decided to take me to see what she somewhat tactlessly referred to as “real” plays. Theater-going was forbidden in our house, but, with the really cruel intuitiveness of a child, I suspected that the color of this woman’s skin would carry the day for me. When, at school, she suggested taking me to the theater, I did not, as I might have done if she had been a Negro, find a way of discouraging her, but agreed that she should pick me up at my house one evening. I then, very cleverly, left all the rest to my mother, who suggested to my father, as I knew she would, that it would not be very nice to let such a kind woman make the trip for nothing. —“Notes of a Native Son,” James Baldwin

What is the problem in this passage?
Baldwin’s father won’t agree to let him go to a play with a white schoolteacher.
Baldwin’s teacher offends Baldwin by suggesting his play isn’t a “real” play.

Please help me thanks

Read the passage from chapter 2 of animal farm. three nights later old major died peacefully in his sleep. his body was buried at the foot of the orchard. this was early in march. during the next three months there was much secret activity. major's speech had given to the more intelligent animals on the farm a completely new outlook on life. they did not know when the rebellion predicted by major would take place, they had no reason for thinking that it would be within their own lifetime, but they saw clearly that it was their duty to prepare for it. the work of teaching and organizing the others fell naturally upon the pigs, who were generally recognized as being the cleverest of the animals. pre-eminent among the pigs were two young boars named snowball and napoleon, whom mr. jones was breeding up for sale. which detail from the passage best supports the idea that the farm is a symbol for russia and the events surrounding the russian revolution? “three nights later old major died peacefully in his sleep. his body was buried at the foot of the orchard.” “major's speech had given to the more intelligent animals on the farm a completely new outlook on life.” “they did not know when the rebellion predicted by major would take place, they had no reason for thinking that it would be within their own lifetime . .” “pre-eminent among the pigs were two young boars named snowball and napoleon, whom mr. jones was breeding up for sale.”
