He modified his question. "Do you wish to be Negro? I have angry words coming out of my mouth. "I'm proud of who I am. My color doesn't suit me right now, but it won't always be like that." It's another courage boost by how she's proud of who she is and letting the reporter know that. She actually answers his questions and doesn't. be offended by them. She even asks him her own questions. In conclusion, Warriors Don't Cry shows how fear can transform into bravery. Nowadays, this may still be relevant. However, all over the world, racism still exists. If people read the memoir, it might change their minds. After all, skin color doesn't really matter. We all have the same rights as everyone else.
