Answer:

Clare identifies with the character Bertha Mason.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Charlotte Brontë's novel, Jane Eyre, Clare identifies with the character Bertha as she recognizes her physical characteristics: curly hair that identifies her as black in comparison to her mixed skin tone which could otherwise be considered as white. As Clare comes to herself through her self awareness, she began to accept her mixed Jamaican identity as she realized more similarities with Bertha.
