Answer:

Dee wanted to shut out the vision of her Mother.

Explanation:

Alice Walker's short story "Everyday Use" details the story of a woman named "Mama" whose two daughter's approaches of "heritage" is so contrasting to each other, Walker uses Mama to show how a single woman and her daughters approach their heritage and history, the importance of family and family heirlooms.

Mama and her daughters Dee and Maggie are the protagonist of the story. Maggie had been living with Mama whereas Dee seems to be the one who always was ashamed of how her other family members live. She went out of home, got an education, stayed in some fancy city and got herself a boyfriend. We know that she even changed her name to Wangero, in accordance to her boyfriend's African identity. She thinks that her mother and sister don't really understand or accept their heritage. But in reality, seh seems to be the one who is more confused about her history and heritage then her family. The lines<em> "She put on some sunglasses that hid everything above the tip of her nose and chin"</em> are from the ending of the story where she had taken whatever she had wanted from the house and is about to leave. This shows her contempt fro her mother, for she had always detested her ways of life and maybe partly because she refused to give her the quilts she had wanted for herself.
