请教一句英语该怎么断句

So how has something that was created by a once despised minority acquire a central place in today’s American culture?
请教一下这句话改怎么断句，他的结构怎么分析？

Answer 1

So，语气用词。
主语是something that was created by a once despised minority，这是有一个that引起的定语从句，修饰something。
谓语是has acquired，因为是疑问句，has提前。
宾语是a central place in today’s American culture。

Answer 2

首先，这句话有个错误，应该是acquired.
分析：
that was created by a once despised minority 是修饰成分，用来修饰something,
所以要在minority后面断句。句首的so承接上文，可以翻译为“然而”

翻译：然而，由曾经一度被歧视的少数民族所创造出来的东西，如今却获得了美国文化界的中心地位，原因是什么呢？
