I'm pretty sure it's A- they express pride in family and culture. Because, is you pay attention to that last part: "For that, my brother and I are very grateful. The story of that success is what made me and what makes me the Latina that I am. The Latina side of my identity was forged and closely nurtured by my family through our shared experiences and traditions." They have pride in what their parents did for them and of course their family. Plus she said that the story of succsess is what made her the Latina that she is.

Hope that helps!
