AYRT. And TL;DR XD

[(Anonymous)]

I know, I feel the same way.

IIRC, Laura was scared of the natives and thought they smelled bad (of course she had no way of understanding the horrible conditions they were living under at the time, or that it was the white man's fault,) but she was just a little kid reacting to unfamiliar people with strange ways and weapons, and the fact that her mother was frightened. And her father at least seemed to appreciate that they were more than the filthy savages Caroline called them. He showed them a modicum of respect and seemed to realize, from some of the things he took his daughters to see, that there was something going on that the settlers had a duty to bear witness to and treat with a sense of solemnity, if not out-and-out guilt.

Even the most overtly racist thing Charles did in the books--appearing in blackface at a town function--struck me more as 'product of the times' ignorance than malice. Which isn't to excuse it, but I came away with the impression that if any actual African-Americans had come into the story--which I do not recall happening, though I could be wrong, it's been some time since I read them--Charles would probably not have treated them much differently than he would any other neighbor.

There is an African-American doctor in Little House on the Prairie, iirc, during the episode where the whole family gets malaria.
