Answer:
C. To convince readers that being black does not lead to discrimination
Explanation:
Hurston omits details about important but negative experiences in her life in order to convince readers that being black doesn't warrant discrimination.
In her story, Hurston uses the metaphor of colored bags. She explains people to be like: bags full of hopes, desires, disappointments, and the stuff of life. She further reiterates that if such bags are disgarded, everyone will be the same, so what's the place of discrimination?
This also explains while Hurston did not consider herself to be “tragically colored”. Despite the discrimination, she comes out stronger for any situation that she has had to endure.
“How It Feels to Be Colored Me” is a story written by Zora Neale Hurston in 1927.
