The fact that best explains why it is significant that Angelou's narrative is set in 1940 is:
- In 1940, segregation of blacks and whites was still the norm.
This is significant because it provides historical context and sheds light on the racial discrimination and inequalities that Angelou and other African Americans faced during that time period. The setting in 1940 allows the narrative to explore and highlight the challenges, struggles, and resilience of the black community in the face of segregation and racism.
