Dear English teachers:
What is the difference between “It was I that/who + past tense” Vs. “It is I who/that + past tense?
Examples and their sources:
“I must tell you that it is I who went to the kitchen with my mother when Bernard met Kang,”
LIAISON
And it is I who wentto tell the people that the child had been murdered by his father.'
Tears of the Dead: The Social Biography of an African Family - Page 89
"It was I who did all these things . . .The Anointed, The Elect, and The Damned! - Page 138
It was I that wrote you the letters.
when should use a past tense after " I is I who/that...?
Thanks
