Please note my correction to your thread title in post #1, huda. That is the right way to ask your question.

In any case, please note that a better title would have been As we struggle to find our individual voices ...

'Explain your answer' sounds like the instruction to students in a text book or test question, not a polite request for help. We don't help with students' assignments unless their teachers have already given them feedback which they don't understand.
