Quote #10
Obasan, however, does not come from this clamorous climate. She does not dance to the multicultural piper's tune or respond to the racist's slur. She remains in a silent territory, defined by her serving hands. She serves us now, pouring tea into Mr. Barker's cup. She is unable to see and stops halfway before the cup is full. (34.53)
Why do you think Obasan is not worried about multiculturalism or racism? What is her identity? How does she express it?
