Answer with Explanation:
"Becoming Joey" is a poem written by Paul C. Gorski. The poem suggests acceptance of diversity in schools by mentioning the "Mexican race" of Jose (who is an immigrant). This is evident in the 7th stanza, "spitting out his Mexican voice." This also shows that Jose has the freedom or the right to express himself in school.
Although Jose didn't live a rich life, he was accepted in the same school were fairer or wealthier children learn. This is evident in the 4th stanza, "Jose pauses in the schoolyard where fairer kids laugh and scamper..."
The last stanza shows how Jose incorporates the new American culture by being called "Joey." This clearly shows how he transitions from Mexican to American.
So, this explains the answer.
