Answer:

I would choose letter C) By embracing her mother's heritage, Chambers enriched her life.

Explanation:

Veronica Chambers is the author of the essay "The Secret Latina", in which she describes how her mother's influence guided her to a life that is culturally rich. The purpose of the essay is not to convince readers that they should do the same. Chambers is simply sharing her own experience of finding her secret identity as a Latina. Being the daughter of a black man with a Hispanic woman and having grown up in Brooklyn, Chambers was always mistaken to be Puerto Rican by others. But her Latin culture was never lost, she was surrounded by it - her mother would cook Panamanian food, speak Spanish at home, dance the salsa at parties... And Chambers dreamed of being like her.

She broke the only barrier that was preventing her from enjoying her Latin origins completely: the language. After learning Spanish, she went back to Panama - where she was born - and experienced what it was like to be herself. Chambers is a black Panamanian, even if people did not see it. Study the excerpts below:

<em>When she spoke Spanish, her words were a fast current, a stream of language that was colorful, passionate, fiery. I wanted to speak Spanish because I wanted to swim in the river of her words, her history, my history, too. [...]</em>

<em> I soon realized that by speaking Spanish with her, I was forging an important bond. When I'd spoken only English, I was the daughter, the little girl. But when I began speaking Spanish, I became something more - a hermanita, a sisterfriend, a Panamanian homegirl who could hang with the rest of them. Eventually this bond would lead me home. [...]</em>

<em>Now I am a grown woman, with hips to spare. I can salsa. My Spanish isn't shabby. You may look at me and not know that I am Panamanian, that I am an immigrant, that I am both Black and Latin. But I am my mother's daughter, a secret Latina, and that's enough for me.</em>

Tell us about the most significant challenge youâve faced or something important that didnât go according to plan. How did you m
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Having problems at work or school with key members of the organization, such as owners, CEO, and fellow managers, or teachers.

Explanation:

Something I've learned in my +5 years of formally working as a professional is the brutal reality that things will not always go according to plan or the desired way. There are so many factors that contribute to this. One considerable factor is that we work with other human beings, who bring their own stories and circumstances to the mix. I always go into a new workplace with the best attitude and intention of learning, cooperating, making things happen, meeting awesome people, etc. However, people come with their own ideas of how things should be done and what should be done. Particularly people with higher ranks who lack emotional intelligence to empathize can really screw things up for you and make it rain on your parade. I've come across such brick walls of humans who, in their persistence to do things their way have considerably damaged me. I've felt attacked, I've felt used, I've felt mocked, broken, and disrespected. Here's the thing. It's critical that one doesn't sit comfortably in self-pity when we come across these situations. These moments in time will always come and it's up to us to decide how well we manage them. I'm not embarrassed to admit that the first times I met inflexible emotionally un-intelligent superiors I handled it very poorly. It's great to let yourself feel the anger and frustration. What's not recommended is to allow these intense emotions to guide your actions and dominate your life at work and at home. With the years and accumulated experiences, I've learned to control the situation as much as possible from within. First of all, I always assume that there is some responsibility in me. I know that if I take control of what I can actually change, I can reduce the tense situation if only a little. Another thing to consider is that people always criticise us for "blaming" others, but I've found that for me to openly and acceptingly admit to my own faults and responsibility, it is also very helpful to know where the other person's responsibility starts and ends. It's okay to identify what someone else is doing wrong, so long as one accepts that we can't jump into their brains to fix it ourselves. Next, if I truly run out of things I can take responsibility for in a tense social and work interaction, it's time for me to take control of my emotions. I let them flow through me without letting them speak for me. Something that has worked great for me has been stepping out for 10 minutes to sit down and meditate. I let the air flow in and out, I focus on what my body is doing and feeling from top to bottom, I feel the anger and then a let it go just as smoothly.

I'm using this experience because I am a very emotional person. I have ALL the feelings and they come with fierce determination. So in high school or college or at work, if a teacher or boss has ever done something dishonest, unfair, or downright wrong, it has a huge impact on me. It makes me mad and I have an ever growing need of fighting for what's right and fair. I've had to learn how to channel this anger, which is correct, into something more productive. I've also had to accept that this person of authority will most likely get away with their horrible and selfish decision, but knowing that it's not in my power to punish them or make them learn, makes it much easier to let go and trust that they will eventually have to learn their lesson, and it'll probably be the hard way. Hey, if I've learned so many very tough lessons the VERY hard way, who's to say that they won't too...eventually?
