Incident

“Incident,” pp. 115-116; write the answer to the question on p. 116.
Question- What accounts for the effectiveness of the last stanza? Comment on the title. Is it in key with the meaning of the poem?
The effectiveness of the last stanza emphasizes on the fact that this young speaker only remembered when she was called this racist word, even though she spent a couple of months there this is the only thing she remembers. Yes, the title depicts or foreshadows that out of all the goodness in this poem there will be something bad, that occurs.
