When Hurston says that she is "busy sharpening [her] oyster knife," she means that she is looking for the best life has to offer.

Zora Neale Hurston wrote the essay "How Does it Feel to Be Coloured Like Me" in 1928, and was published in the magazine "World Tomorrow." Like a good anthropologist she was, she made interesting descriptions of the life of an African American woman in the early 20th century. In the essay, she also has other metaphors such as "the outside of the bag" that stands for the external appearance of the color of the skin.

answer; i do believe that the (14th)fourteenth amendment is the correct answer
