How do I make python randomly select something from a list and if typed in the input prompt, it will show the exact answer as intended

Basically, I want to make a game something like among us, but different, just for fun Anyways whenever I try to make it work, it will say my desired message no matter what. Here's the code:

import turtle   
t=turtle.Turtle()  
import random       

imposteris = ['red', 'blue', 'green', 'cyan', 'lime', 'black', 'white', 'purple', 'orange', 'brown']  
random.choice("imposteris")  
n = 1

print("Welcome to among them, you are a detective, figure out who the imposter is")   
meeting = int(input("Press 1 if you want to call a meeting"))   
if meeting:   
  input("A meeting has been called! Who do you think the imposter is?, Do either red, blue, green, cyan, lime, black, white, purple, orange, brown")   
  for i in range(n):   
    if random.choice(imposteris):   
      print("Congratulations, You caught the imposter.")      
    else:   
      print("He was a crewmate :/")

I took out your import of the Turtle module in order to test the code but you can put it back later.

import random

imposters = ['red', 'blue', 'green', 'cyan', 'lime', 'black', 'white', 'purple', 'orange', 'brown']

print("Welcome to among them, you are a detective, figure out who the imposter is\n")
print("Press 1 if you want to call a meeting")
meeting = int(input("> "))
if meeting:
    imposter = imposters[random.randint(0, len(imposters) - 1)]
    print(imposter)
    print("A meeting has been called! Who do you think the imposter is?, Do either red, blue, green, cyan, lime, black, white, purple, orange, brown")
    imposterGuess = str(input("> "))
if imposter == imposterGuess:
    print("Congratulations, You caught the imposter.")
else:
    print("%s was a crewmate :/" % imposterGuess)```

You do have to link a variable to your random choice, so in this case: your_variable = random.choice(imposteris) then you can do whatever you want with the variable for example: print(your_variable)
