What does paragraph 14 tell us about Squeaky? ( In the story "Raymond's Run")

here is paragraph 14

"I take my time getting to the park on May Day because the track meet is the last thing on the program.
The biggest thing on the program is the May Pole dancing, which I can do without, thank you, even if
my mother thinks it’s a shame I don’t take part and act like a girl for a change. You’d think my mother’d
be grateful not to have to make me a white organdy dress with a big satin sash and buy me new white
baby-doll shoes that can’t be taken out of the box till the big day. You’d think she’d be glad her
daughter ain’t out there prancing around a May Pole getting the new clothes all dirty and sweaty and
trying to act like a fairy or a flower or whatever you’re supposed to be when you should be trying to be
yourself, whatever that is, which is, as far as I am concerned, a poor black girl who really can’t afford to
buy shoes and a new dress you only wear once a lifetime cause it won’t fit next year."
