Answer:

Explanation:
"Merry-Go-Round" is a poem written by Langston Hughes. The poem is centered on the theme of racial segregation due to Jim Crow's section law.
The law disabled the colored people to mix with the whites, and created a separate section, at the back for all blacks, whether be it a train or a bus. But the child in this poem, the speaker, ask the carousel operator questions <em>"Where to sit?", </em>as there is no back in the merry-go-round.
The carousel operator may give the child a stern reply because he is from the North.
