Which sentence best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the authors purpose?

B) It interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.

Explanation: In the given excerpt we can see a young man narrating the events and feelings of the day of his father's funeral (which was also his nineteenth birthday). The author's purpose in this excerpt is to given the message that hatred is extremely destructive, in order to do that the author uses elements of narrative ("The day of my father's funeral had also been my nineteenth birthday") and commentary (" It seemed to me that God himself had devised, to mark my father's end, the most sustained and brutally dissonant of codas").

B. It links personal and national events to show the destructiveness of hatred.

Explanation:

With this sentence we can locate the ideal purpose behind articulations like "unfairness, insurgency, discontent, and contempt “…the violence which rose all about us as my father left the world had been devised as a corrective for the pride of his eldest son.” which are the main and most grounded contentions exhibited in the extract, all the disdain, and languishing that the creator endured over being a Negro around then.

Before answering the question, it is convenient to mention that James Baldwin was a Black writer in the decade of the 50s and even though there were other Negro Writers in the literary world, they all suffered from racisms and social prosecution, the novel “Notes of a native Son” is an autobiography assembled from essays James Baldwin had written. In the novel the author intends to depict the hatred black people had to suffer at that time and it is overtly presented in the excerpt above, when the author mentions that: “…the spoils of injustice, anarchy, discontent, and hatred were all around us.”

Having mentioned the former, the sentence that best explains how the structure of the excerpt supports the author's purpose is: “d.it interweaves elements of narrative and commentary to convey the message that hatred is destructive.” With this sentence we can find the perfect reason for expressions like “injustice, anarchy, discontent, and hatred “…the violence which rose all about us as my father left the world had been devised as a corrective for the pride of his eldest son.” which are the main and strongest arguments presented in the excerpt, all the hatred and suffering that the author suffered for being a Negro at that time.
