Answer:

loving and hating the United States

Step-by-step explanation:

'America' by Claude McKay balances ideas of loving and hating the United States. McKay explores the good parts of the country, the strength, and vigor it contains as well as the bad. Yet, he also comments on the 'bitterness', violence, and corruption the country is known for.
