The short story If I Quench Thee by William E. put up is an appropriate story as it effectively deals with the progeny of racism by showing it through the eyes of a racist white breed who assumes his daughter is marrying a fatal man.If I Quench TheeChoose a short story that you know well that deals with an importantissue. State what the issue is and show, by referring to the plot,character, and technique and how the author has successfully exploredthe issue in an provoke and unusual way.The short story If I Quench Thee by William E. house is anappropriate story as it effectively deals with the issue of racism byshowing it through the eyes of a racist white breed who assumes hisdaughter is marrying a black man.If I Quench Thee is about(predicate) Arthur intransigent, a successful business manwho visits his daughter who works as a social worker in the ghetto.Whilst Arthur is visiting her she is visited by a black man who isrejected by her father because he is racist so he leav es. He waitsoutside and believes about it and realises he can blunt his daughterdating a black man so he goes back to apologise. When he returns heoverhears the black man saying to Arthurs daughter Monica thatmarrying her would be the best the he would do. Hearing this Arthurfills will irritability and leaves. He waits for Tod to come out then murdershim saying that it was a mugging and it was self defence. In thepolice station his daughter turns up and tells her father that theblack man was the vicar for her wedding. This has been the only timeArthur was ever scared.Arthur tin is a successful business man who owns a mink farm. Hewas in the Korean war which I think lead to his disgust of other races.Arthur an... ...disgusted that commonwealth could be so racist and how passel could thinkthat they have a right to kill others just because they arent thesame skin colour as them. It made me think about how sick and twistedpeople can be and how that some people can hate something so much thatthey would take it too such(prenominal) extreme lengths as to things such asmurder. I personally think racism is wrong because people of adifferent race arent any different or inferior to white people manageArthur Stern thought.To conclude, I think that the author has expressed the view on racismin an effective way relating to the plot, characters and techniquesused. Even though Stern was such an evil man, he can still feel affliction for such a terrible act after realising that what he has throughis actually wrong. This makes me believe that human society canimprove on its views of racism.
