Why does Malcolm X call American democracy
hypocritical?

because it  talked about freedom and justice while keeping black Americans pushed down and oppressed

Explanation:

Here you go :)

Basically, it means that it is not true or not living up to what it says. In other words lying. Because, "Their" Democracy is not "Our" Democracy

This language, this frustration is one that echoes again and again among all who have experienced the betrayal of the lofty language of America, like the “black bard of Harlem,” Langston Hughes:

Let America be America again.

Let it be the dream it used to be.

Let it be the pioneer on the plain

Seeking a home where he himself is free.

(America never was America to me.)

….

I am the poor white, fooled and pushed apart,

I am the Negro bearing slavery’s scars.

I am the red man driven from the land,

I am the immigrant clutching the hope I seek–

And finding only the same old stupid plan

Of dog eat dog, of mighty crush the weak.

….

O, yes,

I say it plain,

America never was America to me,

And yet I swear this oath–

America will be! –

We love to honor and celebrate America as a dream that Martin sang about:

“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal’.”

Malcolm points out the necessary, complementary perspective that all too often, at the beginning and yes even now, America is also a nightmare for far too many:

What is looked upon as an American dream for white people

has long been an American nightmare for black people.

Of course we forget that the same Martin, under Malcolm’s influence, would say four years later that he too had been too quick, too idealistic, about the dream.

sir, we have done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on" is the sentence that best articulates this. then he gives the examples.   mark me brainliest

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
