Things fall apart You are Ezinma. You have seen your brother Nwoye leave the family to join the Christians. Your father has just hung himself because of the events with the Christians. You, of all the members of your family, identified most with your father; you saw many things the way he did. Write about your thoughts and feelings of everything that has occurred. How do you feel about the Christians? What do you think will happen next to you and your family?

I (Ezinma) feel irritated, displeased, annoyed with anger about the Chiristians. Due to the fact that my brother Nwoye has left us and joined the Christians. Also that my father just hung himself because of the events with the Christians. This proves that because of the presence of the Christians, they have taken two of my family members. I know I feel towards that. It exasperates me. My family and I will have to try our best to move on, and try to bring my brother back. We might have help from others, but we have to be prepared at any moment.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
