Obviously based on the themes in the book, it is a little harrowing for some people but then it gives us an idea of what race relations were like back then and how some women suffered. What I actually found most illuminating about this book was the strength of the women once they had forged friendships and how they used that to their advantage. It is not so much about race relations as it is about personal strength which gives it a good enough reason for it not to be banned.Emmanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9057271795590627394.post-69459314535178777952013-09-28T01:16:31.545-04:002013-09-28T01:16:31.545-04:00I haven't read it yet.
