Re: "Come mothers and fathers throughout the land, and don't criticize what you can't understand..."

[darkmanifest]

Why did I get mad at her when she says white women treated their female slaves like human beings? It makes convenient sense, because white women were property too, so they understood how wrong slavery was. She read it in a book so it's true.

Maybe she ought to read "Property" by Valerie Martin. But considering the perspective is from that of the wife of the plantation owner and even I was almost duped into feeling bad for her, it might backfire.

If you're not meant to feel bad for her, my mom will feel bad for her and get mad at the text for not making her sympathetic enough. This is how our arguments on the topic always get started: she sees a movie or something where a white woman with slaves or black servants is less than wonderful to them, and accuses it of historically inaccurate anti-woman propaganda. (She even had that issue about The Help, which I haven't seen or read, but have heard enough to know the protagonist is a female White Savior.)
