Answer

The narrator is just sixteen, but he’s eager to make a difference in the world around him.

The narrator skipped a grade in elementary school, so he is younger than his college classmates.

The narrator looks older than his age, and he is worried about his fellow activists finding out the truth.

Explanation

The narrator’s fight to desegregate buses points to the civil rights movement of the 1960s, when activists challenged segregation in public transportation. The other details describe the narrator’s age or personal circumstances but do not establish the historical time period as clearly.
