Based on the passage below (paragraphs 11-12), the author's mother is best described as We don't have much money, but Mom takes me from one end of the city to the other on foot, on buses. I will grow up believing that Chicago
belongs to me, because it was given to me by my mother. Nearly every week we tour the Historical Society, and Mom makes a point of
complaining about the statue that depicts an Indian man about to kill a white woman and her children: "This is the only monument to the history
of Indians in this area that you have on exhibit. It's a shame because it is completely one-sided. Children who see this will think this is what
Indians are all about."
My mother lectures the guides and their bosses, until eventually that statue disappears.
