Your beautiful black blood that irrigates the fields

The blood of your sweat

The sweat of your work

The work of your slavery

Africa, tell me Africa

2. The primary theme of "Telephone Conversation" is racism. In the poem, a Black man tries to confirm a housing arrangement with a landlady over the phone. He wishes to inform the landlady that he is Black, and a ridiculous conversation ensues regarding how dark his skin color is. Lines from the poem that show how the landlady degraded the African's color of skin.

Considerate she was, varying the emphasis--

"ARE YOU DARK? OR VERY LIGHT?" Revelation came.

"You mean--like plain or milk chocolate?"

Her assent was clinical, crushing in its light

Impersonality. Rapidly, wave-length adjusted,

I chose. "West African sepia"--and as afterthought,

"Down in my passport." Silence for spectroscopic

Flight of fancy, till truthfulness clanged her accent

Hard on the mouthpiece. "WHAT'S THAT?" conceding

"DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS." "Like brunette."

"THAT'S DARK, ISN'T IT?" "Not altogether.

The No Witchcraft For Sale - has a theme that shows the strong differences in cultures. In the story, witch doctors use their supernatural powers to help heal patients; along with their imminent knowledge of the environment. In Doris Lessing short story,  there are three essential themes to the story. One is love. It was shown in the part where Gideon got a snake venom. He used his extensive knowledge in his herbs of the environment to save Teddy's eyes. Second is loyalty and the third one is Trustworthiness.  

The Moment Before the Gun Went Off" by Nadine Gordimer depicts the  practice of  the Apartheid. undesired characteristics.  

The Apartheid Practice

Starting around 1950, the government of South Africa adopted a number of laws which introduced forced segregation between people belonging to different ethnic groups.

In practice, this meant that non-white South Africans - a majority of the population - were forced to live in separate areas and use separate public institutions. Even marriages and relationships between people of different ethnicities were outlawed. All of these laws had terrible human consequences, as people were forced away from their homes and families were torn apart.

In the short story, the protagonist , Van der Vyver raises and protects his territory and the community of black people who work for him. It is shown that Van der Vyver employs the the practice of Apartheid to animals and the black workers. One practice is "culling", which means separating animals from a group according to desired or undesired characteristics.

It is noticeable how white people treated the Black Africans. White are separated from blacks. If you are white, you are classified as a rich person with power. If you are black you are belong to the worker category. Likewise with how the protagonist treated the animals. They were separated according to the characteristics they have.

The Prisoner Who Were Glasses is a the story describes the political development of a glasses-wearing character named Brille, who transforms from a man who was originally attracted to the clean and attractive theories of anti-apartheid political activism into a man who is an active and practicing member of a resistance group, and who realizes how to use and wield political power to achieve tangible results.

In the poems, African are natives of Africa. They originally inhabited Africa. Before the Westerners colonized the countries of the continent of Africa, the natives had the freedom. They were the owners of the agricultural lands. They might not be knowledgeable with the civilization but they have their own culture and tradition.  

When the Western Colonizers discovered and found the available natural resources, white people began to come and visit then conquer the countries.  

No matter how African fought for their rights as natives of the lands, Westerners were powerful. They forced the natives to practice and adopt the WESTERERS way. The colonizers tried to erase their identities as natives of the lands. However, the Africans, as the years passed by never forget their roots and still practices some of the traditions they had up to present.

The short stories, "Africa," "Telephone Conversation," and the poems: In the films No Witchcraft for Sale, The Moment the Gun Went Off, and The Prisoner with the Glasses, colonialism, enslavement, and social racism are all themes. The literary works illustrate how black Africans were treated by white Europeans.

The standards you set for yourself, your dignity can also be referred to as pride.

In his address to Africans, Diop highlights the issues that colonialism left behind and calls on them to bring about freedom and change. lines from the poem Africa that illustrate the difficulties and labor that colonialism brought.

Your lovely, dark blood, which irrigates the fields

The perspiration on your blood

The tears of your labor

The fruits of your servitude

Tell me about Africa.

Therefore, The literary works illustrate how black Africans were treated by white Europeans.

I know one place in the northern part of the state where I camped a while in the summer, and I went to the school and talked to the
teachers. They are using school books which have been passed down from one child to another. They have practically no books outside of
the textbooks. The children in the district are so poor and some of them so pathetic that I suppose the struggle to live has been so great you
could not think much about what you fed the mind, but I came away feeling that right there, in one of the biggest and richest states in the
country, we had a big area that needed books and needed libraries to help these schools in the education of the children, and, even more,
to help the whole community to learn to live through their minds.
