Interesting Reading Today

I am now up to page 720, and this section has bbeen interesing for one reason - Mitchell wass letting her feminist colors fly for much of the readn]ing I did today.  The way she harped on how men thi]ought of omen back then clearly showed how ridicullous she thought that was - what I don't get is how someone can feel like that and not be able to see the hypocrisy of seeing Blacks the same way.   People are people - some smart, some dumb, some industrious, some lazy.  None of that, however, is prefaced by race or gender.
