Question 5 • Quiz

How is the speaker’s point of view in the poem “Child of the Americas” used to explore cultural identity?

Answer
A
The third-person point of view allows her to be an objective observer of cultural conflicts.
B
The first-person point of view allows her to claim ownership of her own cultural identity.
C
The first-person point of view allows her to share personal experiences of racism in America.
D
The third-person point of view allows her to look at culture from a historical perspective.

Explanation

The speaker repeatedly uses “I” to describe her many cultural roots and declare that they are all part of who she is. This first-person point of view lets her speak for herself and claim ownership of her cultural identity. The poem is not mainly focused on recounting personal experiences of racism.
