Read the excerpt from Black Boy. He asked easy, drawling questions about me, his other son, his wife, and he laughed, amused, wh

en I informed him of their destinies. I forgave him and pitied him as my eyes looked past him to the unpainted wooden shack. From far beyond the horizons that bound this bleak plantation there had come to me through my living the knowledge that my father was a black peasant who had gone to the city seeking life, but who had failed in the city; a black peasant whose life had been hopelessly snarled in the city, and who had at last fled the city—that same city which had lifted me in its burning arms and borne me toward alien and undreamed-of shores of knowing.

Answer:

Wright's cultural perspective helps him understand the difficulties his father faced throughout life.

Explanation:

<em>Black Boy </em>is the autobiography of the narrator Richard Wright about his childhood, growing up in the South amidst the racial prejudice and his life getting education and his adult life in Chicago. He recounts his lief of turbulent times with his relationship with his father and the hatred he has for him, but at the same time deciding to forgive the man he has as a father.

The given excerpt is from the end of chapter 10, after Wright had went to meet his father after a <em>"quarter of a century"</em> from when he last saw him. He saw how similar they are, even though he may have hated his father the whole time. He realized that the cultural circumstances may have had a hand in what he did when he did. Wright decided to forgive his father, for he believes and now understands that the societal and cultural circumstances his father may have gone through that time. He understands the difficulties he may have faced throughout his life, which probably led him act the way he did.
