The relationship between white and black people in America is still today an ongoing issue, which can be traced back in history. Even though the issue isn’t as big as it was 50 years ago, it still has influence in America, in every perspective, both as individuals but also as a community. Today we have a black president in America, so America has changed, but how was that possible? And how is the relationship between blacks and whites? Another interesting perspective is the telephone, is a thing to communicate with, but can it also be used to make a bond between whites and blacks? That is what the essay “Time and Distance Overcome” deals with.

It has a lot of creativity and a wild imagination. Both are dealing with creating a vivid unspoken communication with a lot of unspecified detail. After creating my tableaux, my perspective about the poem has changed. First, it is very difficult to create a still picture that tells very detail about a story. Secondly, this poem imparts more information that I overlook at first glance; such as the character’s unknown bond, I total omitted the that the poem had a question and answer session; and silence can communicate an important message and tell a lot about a character and the circumstance than any conversation.

Wole Soyinka’s “Telephone Conversation” is an eloquent exchange of dialogue between a dark West African man and his British landlady that inexorably verges on the question of apartheid. The poet makes use of the most articulate means to air his views, through that of a telephone conversation, where there is instant and natural give-and-take. It exhibits a one-to-one correspondence between the two. The interaction between a coloured and a white individual at once assumes universal overtones.

The poem has no stable form and is written in a free verse. Writing the poem in a free verse the poet wants to show that is no limit as to how people who suffered for a greater future for others can get treated while alive. The media and other people can

This poem is the model to go by when looking to get something from another. All this goes back to sentence structure, because as the speaker inches closer to revealing what he wants, he starts breaking up his sentences more, portraying a slight nervousness about his request. There are no more one sentence cantos, there are six and eight sentence ones because the speaker has exhausted all of his flattery and has to come clean about his intentions.

The art series “The Color of Your Voice,” is a great way to spark conversations for this audience.

You Hear is a piece that depicts the experience of being a Black person on the phone. It hits on topics such as phone and housing discrimination, redlining, and policy. At the art gallery, this piece can be an avenue for Black people to discuss their experience with trying to get equal opportunity but being denied due to their speech. It is also a way to challenge the subconscious discrimination over the phone that they face from people in power, like employers. This sparks discussion on the institutional barriers set up against black people. White people wouldn’t work on not judging people by the way they speak if they haven’t really considered that they were discriminating based on what they heard over phone.
