Explanation
The novel describes sharecroppers working fields they did not own, and it shows tension between white landowners and formerly enslaved people. It also reflects how many formerly enslaved children had been denied education and could not read. The characters’ mixed backgrounds and family connections make identity and relationships complicated. Sharecroppers generally rented land or worked it in exchange for part of the crop, so they did not own the land; schooling was also segregated rather than routinely shared by white and African American children.
