The next summer, I wanted something better than
standing in a crowd every morning hoping for a day’s work.
My opportunity came when the hiring boss announced one
morning that the Pepsi plant in Long Island City was looking
for porters to clean the floors, full-time for the summer. I
raised my hand. I was the only one who did.
The porters at the Pepsi plant were all black. The workers
on the bottling machines were all white. I didn’t care. I just
wanted work for the summer, and I worked hard, mopping up
syrup and soda that had spilled from overturned pallets.
At summer’s end, the boss told me he was pleased with my
work and asked if I wanted to come back. “Yes,” I answered,
“but not as a porter.” He agreed, and next summer I worked
on the bottling machine and as a pallet stacker, a more
prestigious and higher-paying job. It wasn’t exactly the Selma
March, but I integrated a bottling machine crew.
What does this story reveal about Powell as a person?
He liked working for Pepsi more than he liked working for Coke.
He learned that if he worked hard, people would be surprised.
He was a hard worker and overcame some racial boundaries.
He told people what he should be doing to get what he wanted.

brown toast with my eggs.
Answer:
I wore this jacket because my mom told me it would be a cool,
✔ windy
day.
I'm sorry, sir, but I ordered
✔ crunchy
brown toast with my eggs.
Explanation:
The word that develops a pair of coordinate adjectives would be as follows:
1). I wore this jacket because my mom told me it would be a cool, windy day.
2). I'm sorry, sir, but I ordered crunchy brown toast with my eggs.
Coordinate Adjectives
Coordinate Adjectives are described as adjectives that are placed consecutively to modify or qualify a single noun in the sentence. These adjectives come immediately one after another and therefore, using a comma(,) between the two along with the conjunction "and" is suggested. Thus, the above sentences employ "crunchy" and "windy" adequately to define the nouns 'day' and 'toast' along with other adjectives present in the sentences.Learn more about "Adjectives" here:

What Is An Intersection?
By Mahogany L. Browne and Olivia Gatwood
An intersection is a place
where things come together--
like four cars waiting
to go different directions
at a stoplight.
People intersect too
not just while moving down the street
but in who we are--
inside our bodies is a
stoplight where our identities come together
to make us a house of flamethrowers
to make us a river of living things.
We all have multiple identities--
you might be in a room full of girls,
but no two are exactly alike--
Classmate with nose ring and painted headband
Soccer player with flowing scarf and full smile
Student in library with brown skin and headphones
Skateboarder with hat to the back and book in hand
Swimmer with painted nails and crew cut
Dancer who says, “Only call me by my name.”
That’s intersectionality.
We all have different experiences in the world.
And we all have experiences we share.
Intersectionality means
paths crossing one another with respect.
Intersectionality means
moving with intentionality and
acknowledgement of surroundings.
Intersectionality means
we are all happening, we are all supporting
each other.
We are an ecosystem, living and growing,
depending on each other for survival,
evolving and becoming whole.
After read, please help with the question:
In the last two lines of stanza two, the speaker says that our identities come together to “make us a house of flamethrowers/to make us a river of living things.”
What do you think it means to be a “house of flamethrowers” ?
My notes: convey patience and skill required to be a flamethrower
Please analyze 4 sentencess
What do you think the author means by a “river of living things”? T
My notes: significance of water in generality, rivers flow and move freely, etc
Please 4 sentences min
Thank you so much!!
Answer:
When the author says that our identities come together to “make us a house of flamethrowers/.”, I think he meant that humans are different and because of that difference there will always be conflict.
I think it also has something to do with instability because a flamethrower is erratic and not stable.
When the author said, "a river of living things", I think he was referring to how different people are and how our identities intersect.
A river can be a home to many different sea animals and no two sea animals are the same.
I think it can also mean that despite the differences, we still find a way to co-exist and move together as a society just like the river.
