    1) The document summarizes a black photo from the Windrush generation showing a man in front of a door with a sign saying "no colored men" next to his luggage. This suggests he has been refused housing due to his skin color. 2) The man feels helpless against the racism and segregation of society at that time. As part of the Windrush generation, he came to the UK for work and a better life but faces discrimination instead. 3) The high angle shot emphasizes his submission and loneliness against the injustice and racism of society, where he has no power over his situation.

    P140 Disillusion
    Question 1
    On the photo, we can see a black man with suitcases/ some luggage. He is in front of
    a door with a paper saying “rooms to let/ no colored men”. We can imagine that he is
    refused or he has been kicked out.

    Suitcase: valise luggage: bagages kick out: mettre/ foutre dehors

    Question 2

    With this paper on the door, we can see that black people are not accepted. The
    man feels helpless. He needs to be housed but he cannot because of his skin color. We can
    suppose that this man is part of the Windrush generation. He may have just arrived in the UK
    and he discovers that black people are not accepted everywhere. He faces racism. He came
    to the Uk to find a job, better living conditions, and to feed his family; however /
    nevertheless, this is the contrary. He must feel angry, sad, disappointed, even desperate.
    Looking worried at the sign proves that the segregation has a profound impact on citizens.

    Helpless: sans défense/ impuissant/ désarmé to be housed: être hébergé/ loger


    nevertheless: néanmoins

    The sentence on the door is not long or complicated but the man is staring at it. He
    seems to be stuck on it.

    The photo was taken from above. It is a high angle shot. It evokes submission. He is crushed
    by society, racism, injustice. He has no power or impact on the situation. He is represented
    as an insignificant/ unimportant person.
    We can also deduce that he is at the bottom of the social ladder; the fact that he is looking
    down at the stairs could mean that he could go even lower; his situation could become
    worse.

    High angle shot: prise de vue en plongée insignificant: insignifiant/sans


    importance social ladder: échelle sociale lower: plus bas worse:
    pire

    We can see everything that surrounds the man. This emphasizes the fact that he is
    alone and lonely. It is a full length photo, so we can see his luggage and speculate that he
    can’t find a place to stay.

    We cannot see his face; therefore, we can consider him as a symbol. He is representative of
    his community. His shadow gives the impression that they are several persons. It could
    symbolize the whole black population in the UK. It must have happened to many other
    people.

    To emphasize: souligner/ insister sur le fait que.. Shadow : ombre

    full length photo : photo de plein pied
