Answer 3

Maids were amongst the likes of slaves in the 1950’s. Racial tensions were high and discrimination was fluttering. This is depicted in the novel The Help by Kathryn Stockett. Stockett describes the lives of African Americans and the women’s roles during the 1950’s and 1960’s. There were many racist acts toward African Americans especially towards Minny and Aibileen two black women working as maids in the novel. The story takes place in Jackson Mississippi where a young white woman named Skeeter lived for most her life. Skeeter fought for Civil Rights secretly. She helped the maids by trying to publish a book about their lives as maids and how they are treated. This book is a great illustration of how African Americans lived back in the 1960’s.
During the 1950's and 1960's African Americans never seem to be equal with the white society due to the color of their skin, and their different personalities. Blacks have been discriminated against for generations and separated from whites by law. Segregation has oppressed blacks for years. For example there are different public bathrooms for colored and for whites. There were water fountains for black and only colored schools. There were laws prohibiting black from haves certain rights which lead to civil rights movement’s that lead to violence and chaos. African Americans are threatened by groups if they don't follow the law or rules. In the book The Help by Kathryn Stockett, she shows how racism and discrimination destroys the chance of the American dream for African American.

Topic sentence: African Americans have been segregated for generation. Since slavery, they have been put to work and when they finally got their freedom they've felt discriminated against for there personality and color. dealing with threats and segregation the African American society never seemed to change. Separating blacks from the white community was a law and breaking it will have consequences.
