Robert Frost‚ “Out‚Out—“ 1. In line 15‚ Frost describes the saw as being sinister. He infers that the saw has a mind of its own‚ by stating that the saw jumped out of the boy’s hand and cut the boy’s hand terribly. Frost also makes it seem as if the saw is in a way‚ like a friend.

Radical Republicans ruled and Democrats led the South. Having very different opinions on what to do to unify the country again‚ there was the creation of many ideas‚ laws‚ amendments‚ and acts that led to what we call the Reconstruction period. The legacy of Reconstruction is good‚ as goals to reunify South and North were achieved. It is also very negative because racial inequalities continued in many different ways as black codes and Jim Crow laws kept blacks from being equal. Starting with the Radical
