Read the excerpt from sunil's personal narrative. when i first came to the united states from india, i was frustrated by the assumptions people made about me and my culture. people often think that because i'm from india, i am a hindu. i'm actually malayali, from kerala, and i'm muslim. and the day that a girl at school asked me if it felt weird not living in a longhouse anymore really took the cake. india is known for a lot of different architectural styles, and a longhouse isn't one of them! but the misunderstandings about who i am and where i am from are only the tip of the iceberg. as a person of color, i've been called a lot of names here by people on the street, in the grocery store, in school—practically everywhere—and their underlying message is this: you have no right to feel safe here. what function does this paragraph serve in the narrative? a. it is a flashback to sunil's experiences in india. b. it is an exposition of sunil's background and the introduction to a conflict. c. it is a description of the action following sunil's solution to a conflict. d. it is a reflection on the solution to sunil's conflict.
