Answer:

She is angry about an unjust punishment and finds satisfaction in taking out her frustrations on the turnips.

Explanation:

During the school days of Zitkala-Sa who was a girl Indian, she was unable to speak English in her early days in school which affected her communication and understanding. Later on, in her school life, she was able to speak broken English which gives her a little bit of understanding and ability to communicate better which later resulted in her being mischievous thereby resulting in a spirit of anger and revenge.

However, there was a day she was punished for an offense she felt was needless for any form of punishment. In carrying out the punishment, Zitkala-Sa mashes the turnips with full anger in protest against the unjust punishment melted to her.
