Answer 2

Answer:

She allows her hair to go back to its naturally curly state.

Explanation:

One of the actions that show that Beneatha is interested in her African heritage is the fact that she allows her hair to go back to its naturally curly state. Beneatha's hair is used as a symbol of the development of her identity throughout the story. At the beginning of the story, her hair is straightened. However, as time goes by, Beneatha becomes more confident in her identity and prouder of her heritage. These inner changes are shown in the way she does her hair.
