1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A). People of color often hide their identity due to the negative expectations of   society.

Explanation:

The poem 'Jabari Unmasked' authored by Nikki Grimes primarily deals with the theme of 'unfair judgments based on physical appearance and skin color' that often leads individuals to develop a sense of inferiority themselves and they begin to hide their true identity. The speaker(being a colored individual) adopts a frustrating tone towards the injustices bore by them due to the color of their skin which is reflected when he says <u>'our color works to camouflage our/character and promise'(implying their color hides their skills and identity)</u> and <u>'agile minds, the wit that sits behind our cheeks...who’d guess that some of us are geeks</u>.' Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
