C) He gives examples of denied citizenship rights.
Read this excerpt from "The Medicine Bag.” All I could do was stand there with the whole neighborhood watching and shake the hand of the leather-brown old man. I saw how his gray hair straggled from under his big black hat, which had a drooping feather in its crown. His rumpled black suit hung like a sack over his stooped frame. As he shook my hand, his coat fell open to expose a bright red satin shirt with a beaded bolo tie under the collar. His get-up wasn’t out of place on the reservation, but it sure was here, and I wanted to sink right through the pavement.
Which is a symbol of the grandpa's heritage in this excerpt?
the handshake, the drooping feather, the rumpled black suit, the neighborhood
Answer:
The drooping feather
Explanation:
From the excerpt above, the symbolism of the drooping feather is such that it is not a common sight to see someone put it on a crown without a special reason or need to do so and it is meant to send a particular message to anyone that sees it.
So, we can infer that is in fact the symbol of the grandpa's heritage in this excerpt because it symbolizes heritage.
