Which statement best explains the cultural conflict that occurs between the braider, Aisha, and the narrator, Ifemelu? [Excerpt from "Americanah" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie] *

Many people, upon hearing that they are the progeny of a mass-murderer, bury this fact and shy away from it as much as possible. Jeff Mudgett, a lawyer and former Commander in the U.S. Naval Reserve, instead takes his direct lineage to one of history’s most notorious killers and runs with it. He also has taken his crusade everywhere from TED to the printed page to prove that his relative was, in fact, Jack the Ripper.

Explanation:

Through a series of cons and acts of misdirection, H.H. Holmes built his murder castle piece by piece. He found his in as a pharmacy clerk for an elderly woman and her sickly husband, weaseling his way into taking ownership of the property from the couple. However, Holmes had eyes for the property across the street, and soon bought the building. The new pharmacy was located in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood on the corner of 63rd and Wallace streets. He began construction on what neighbors called “the castle”—an architectural beast whose name would later morph into what we know it as today, “the Murder Castle.”

To evade discovery, Holmes put his devious habits into action by firing and hiring a series of construction crews (and usually “refusing” to pay them for what he claimed was shoddy work). Holding tight onto the architectural plans, he only doled out bits and pieces of the blueprints to the crews working on it, so no one would realize his horrifying intent. The building included a basement, a series of shops at street level, and two stories sitting on top of the shops that comprised the hotel. His intention was to have the property finished by the time the World’s Fair, also known as the Columbian Exposition, had opened to the public.
