He concludes his argument by pointing out one of its implications: that those in miserable circumstances should not be scorned, because they have the potential to one day achieve greatness.

In the excerpt from "The Negro Artist and the Racial Mountain," in which sentence does Hughes indicate that musicians and writers should work without any concern about judgment? An artist must be free to choose what he does, certainly, but he must also never be afraid to do what he might choose. But, to my mind, it is the duty of the younger Negro artist, if he accepts any duties at all from outsiders, to change through the force of his art that old whispering “I want to be white,” hidden in the aspirations of his people, to “Why should I want to be white? I am a Negro—and beautiful!” So I am ashamed for the black poet who says, “I want to be a poet, not a Negro poet,” as though his own racial world were not as interesting as any other world. We build our temples for tomorrow, strong as we know how, and we stand on top of the mountain, free within ourselves.

3.) The comparison between ships and gulls adds to the development of the following passage
(paragraphs 4-5) mainly by explaining that.
We watched until the boats became a row of tiny white gulls on the horizon. Our vigil would end when
they slipped over the edge and disappeared. You had to squint against the glare to keep them sighted,
and with every blink you expected the last white speck to be gone.
But this time they didn't disappear. They kept floating out there, suspended, as if the horizon had
finally become what it always seemed to be from shore: the sea's limit beyond which no man could
sail. They floated a while, then they began to grow, tiny gulls becoming boats again, a white armada
cruising toward us.
A. the boats are harmless
B. the boats normally become small-looking before they disappear beyond the horizon
C. gulls usually occupy the horizon when the boats disappear
