This question is about the poem "The New Colossus"

Answer:

We can see that the powerful woman is a statue when the speaker of the poem states that she is located at the city gates. This is evident through the line "Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand".

Explanation:

The powerful woman to whom the poem refers is the statue of liberty. In this poem the speaker of the text makes a comparison between the statue of liberty and the statue of Colossus of Rhodes. he shows how the two statues are imposing in their own ways and have meanings different from each other. While the colossus statue served as a threat to enemies, the liberty statue served as a protection for those who needed a home.
