Read the following excerpt from leslie marmon silko’s story "the man to send rain clouds." the sky in the west was full of pale yellow light. louise stood outside with her hands in the pockets of leon's green army jacket that was too big for her. the funeral was over, and the old men had taken their candles and medicine bags and were gone. she waited until the body was laid into the pickup before she said anything to leon. she touched his arm, and he noticed that her hands were still dusty from the corn meal that she had sprinkled around the old man. when she spoke, leon could not hear her. which detail in this excerpt indicates that leon and his family still carry out traditional pueblo practices? the funeral service and the candles the sky in the west and the pale yellow light the body in the pickup and the army jacket the medicine bags and the sprinkled cornmeal

The correct answer is D) the medicine bags and the sprinkle cornmeal.

The detail in the excerpt that indicates that Leon and his family still carry out traditional Pueblo practices is the medicine bags and the sprinkle cornmeal.

The traditional Pueblo practice is found in the text when the author writes: “She touches his arm and he noticed that her hands were still dusty from the cornmeal that she had sprinkled around the old man.” Traditions from people from Pueblo, New Mexico, are an important part of their culture.

“The Man to Send the Rain Clouds” is a story written by Leslie Marmon Silko in 1969. Silko belongs to the Native America Narrative Renaissance of the 1970s.  

I believe the answer is D). The holy water is important to both the priest and Leon, but it is important for different reasons.

Hope this helps!
