Answer: To emphasize his personal connection to segregation.

In this excerpt, the author highlights how he has experienced segregation in his own life. He tells us of the horrible feeling he had when her daughter wanted to go to Funland and he had to explain to her that she could not, because she was black. This sentence highlights the impact that segregation had on the author, and most likely, on other people like him.
