With this type of inner dialogue Stockett appears to assume that blacks would rather be anyone but who we were born.
In addition, though the movie changes the reason why the maids decide to help Skeeter with the manuscript Taylor uses Medgar Evers death as the catalyst instead of Hilly pressing charges against Yule May for stealing , look what Stockett has Aibileen thinking days after Evers murder:. Evers got shot a week ago, lot a colored folks is frustrated in this town. This reads more like Aibileen is resigned to it all. What I care about is, if in ten years, a white lady will call my girls dirty and accuse them of stealing silver.
Minny Pg And why does Stockett have Minny making such stupid statements? Stockett sets up the maids stories to appear as great or of greater importance than the civil unrest that actually went on in Jackson. Thus Minny distances herself from the community meetings in order to keep her appointments with Skeeter. But there was no need to disparage the very real civil rights activities to do so.
This turns the character into a buffoon. Note this line in the review posted below. Because far too many people would rather believe a film than real history. It was started by African Americans, for African Americans. It began, not in the s, but when the first African American was bound and shackled centuries ago. October 2, Sam Draves. December 15, This book is a work of fiction. The author has stated this many times and she has also said that she based characters off of people in her life.
Give her a break! Its a good book and I rather enjoyed reading it. So again give her a break! Most readers know this is a work of fiction. However Stockett grew up in a household that read carefully now practiced segregation.

Which meant Demetrie, the maid Stockett says inspired this novel worked under rules that treated her like a second class citizen. They did nothing but leave me cold. I wholeheartedly agree that the novel is crap. Thanks for your post. You covered just about every excuse why so many adore this novel, without giving any substantive facts to back it up. December 16, Its supposed to be fiction not an exact reenactment of history. But concerning how black men are portrayed, I do believe there was a young black man that went around helping everyone and was kind to Aibileen.
So maybe you should go through the book one more time…. So this is how you defend your position? Your willingness to remain naive or ignorant, take your pick, on the numerous issues within the novel is what Stockett and her publisher, and those behind the movie were counting on. Congrats for proving them right. Dear What-Ever-Your-Name-Is, Thank you for calling me ignorant, that really makes me consider that your points could be valid.
I stated that the book was fiction and somehow you think that I think what she wrote is the truth. I do not under any circumstance believe that this story is true. I know that this is not exactly how things happened. Just like the character Skeeter… And I had a lot of respect for all of the maids in the book and I did not think badly of the black men in the book either.
I personally disliked all of the white characters way more than all of the black characters. There are millions of drunk and lazy people around the world and many of them are white.

So maybe you should again just accept the book as fiction and stop going through and finding every single inaccuracy in this book. I hope this was a good explanation for you. I encourage you to read other posts on this blog. The saintly, devoted maid, or Mammy is not an honorable character to many African Americans. Much of what she wrote was offensive, and inaccurate.

Amber Maiden. January 19, Wow…you certainly do have A LOT to say about this book! And much of it is very true. But being that the writer was white, writing from her particular place and time, I think that she honestly did the very best she could do to tell an interesting underdog story from her limited perspective. I mean what did you expect? So what are you really expecting from this white girl? You should expect exactly what you got, flat, two dimensional black characters and the great big white hope of a white girl coming to the rescue.

Are you really surprised or offended by that? But surprised? Come on! That is the typical Hollywood formula for these types of stories.

Honestly, it was nice to get a slightly different take on the same old Hollywood story. I will agree that white writers who are seemingly unable to tell a biracial or bicultural story any other kind of way are ridiculously unimaginative. Or maybe not. And I say this from personal experience.
A lot of them, seriously, did not get the memo.
A lot of them, and certainly many of the southerners on both sides of the color line are stuck in step-it and fetch it mode, for reasons far too complicated to delve into here. Lots of them, really do say and do stupid shit, marry abusive men, and act inelegantly on the bus, or in other private or public places. Just take the book for what it is, white-washed, dumbed-down, slightly, ever so slightly, historically based, dopily feel-goodish story about some maids rising up with the help of the great hope white girl Skeeter.
Who actually does come off as shallow, self-interested and opportunistic to me, but not nearly as shallow, self-interested and opportunistic as the rest of her crew, which actually does make her more real, human and redeeming. January 20, I disagree. Doing the very best she could would entail at least doing a google search on how Medgar Evers was murdered.

Stockett has also become a very wealthy woman simply because a group of southern friends got together to write a book and a novel on how much fun they had with their black maids. Yet she ignores the real life maid Abilene Cooper, who still works for her brother, which underscores just how much compassion she truly has for domestics like her childhood maid, Mrs.
Demetrie McLorn. Whether or not Kathryn Stockett knows who Angela Davis is has no bearing in a discussion of the novel or movie.
