Im from the future

The tone of Alice Walker's power called "Women" is one of admiration for the strength of women in older generations who made sacrifices and wanted better for their children, like the author's own mother.

Explanation:

Alice Walker wants to convey how strong the women of her mother's generation were and how they made sacrifices so their own children could have a better life and more opportunities. "They knew what we must know without knowing a page of it themselves" speaks to how the mothers advocated for education and understood how central it was for their children; though they themselves never had that opportunity themselves.
