Answer:
The point Hurston is trying to make is through humor, showing the black people as part of the society of the United States.
Explanation:
She is not <em>“the only Negro in the United States whose grandfather on the mother’s side was not an Indian chief”</em>. In fact, the term "Indian chief" refers to the white owners of the slaves. At that time it was very common for these people to abuse women to get them pregnant and thus generate more slaves, so she is not the only one in this situation.
What the author tries to show with this phrase is the diversity of races is abundant in the United States, since their descendants come in part from white men, for which the author criticizes the racism of people who still do not accept it.
This period is considered to be a moment of testing boundaries hence why the role of women in literature changed drastically. During this period of time women started to be portrayed as main characters instead of romantic counterparts/secondary characters. Instead of being the emblem of fragility they suddenly became icons of independence and emotional intelligence (hence why they were usually described as able to reveal their feelings and express their thoughts and opinions)
For example both stories portray the stereotypes that all girls want to be popoular, worshipped and the focus of attention and how society tends to discriminate people based on their looks they counter attack those beliefs and instead make the statement that although physical beauty has a great value in society it is not what determines a person's value.
