      "The golden splendor of day / the sable pride of night" (Cullens 3-4)These are clearly two different things. The day has the sun and life everywhere. The night brings the moon and cooler weather. day and night are polar opposites, but they really are not very different. Day right now is night somewhere else. Even though doesn't look like night it still is.”Oblivious to look and word / They pass, and see no wonder.” (Cullens 9-10) These boys can’t see the difference between night and day. When people make fun of one of them being black or white, they are oblivious to this because they don’t see any difference with each other. I wonder how these boys don’t see anything different about them? I probably forgot these are great people.This is what the Harlem Renaissance taught us, that people are people no matter their skin color.
