Understanding Allusion
An allusion is a reference, typically brief, to a person, place, thing, event, or other literary work with which the reader is presumably familiar. Throughout her “To My People,” speech Assata Shakur alludes to several people, places and events. To better understand her speech, you will need to understand the allusions or references that she makes inside of the speech.
Briefly research each person, place or event below. For each allusion, write 3-5 complete sentences explaining who the person is or was/what the event was/what the place is. You must explain in your own words. You must also cite your sources (where you found the information). You may only use credible sources (i.e journal articles, books, reputable newspaper articles or websites, encyclopedias, etc.). You may not use Wikipedia as a source.
