Read the following example from Magic Carpet by Mitali Perkins and then answer the question that follows.
Greedy for stories, I devoured books in the children's section of the library. In those days, it was easy to conclude that any tale worth publishing originated in the so-called West, was written in English, and featured North American or European characters. Slowly, insidiously, I began to judge my heritage through colonial eyes. I asked my mother not to wear a sari, her traditional dress, when she visited me at school. I avoided the sun so that the chocolate hue of my skin couldn't darken. The nuances and cadences of my father's Bangla began to grate on my ears. "Not THAT story again, Dad, I'd say "I'm reading right now."
