What is significant about Dee's comment that her mother and sister don't understand their heritage?
What will be an ideal response?
* Dee's understanding and appreciation of her heritage seem to come from Dee's new-found awareness about African-American life. Her claiming of her family's life seems disingenuous given her previous actions and attitudes. She had earlier rejected the quilts because they were too old.
* The fact that Maggie and her mother know and care even about the small details of their history, and believe that the quilts should be used as they were meant to be used, conveys a solid understanding of their heritage.
