Read the excerpt from "Why Do Black Women Fear the

Fro?" by Cheryl Thompson.
This history of hair alteration saddens me. Sure, all
women have body image issues and anxiety about their
looks. We're too thin, too fat, not pretty enough or not
feminine enough. Yet people rarely discuss how black
women have been chemically altering the natural state
of their hair for more than 100 years, and continue to
spend money they sometimes don't have to hook up a
tight weave, just to be like everyone else.
What type of voice is created by the author's diction in
the excerpt?
O worried
O subjective
O envious
O ironic

Answer: B SUBJECTIVE

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the excerpt, the type of voice created by the author's diction is subjective. The author expresses personal opinions and feelings about the history of hair alteration and its impact on black women. The use of phrases like "This history of hair alteration saddens me" and "just to be like everyone else" indicates a subjective perspective and an emotional response to the topic.
