Description
|
In Georgia, where I lived with the Barnett family in their old plantation home, I learned about a kind of racism based not on hatred but on a historically conditioned paternalistic love for blacks. Mrs. Barnett seen here with her friend Mrs. Hill spent days taking me around to black families her family had once owned—apparently a very short time ago in her imagination (and, as I discovered, in the black consciousness as well).
