Lol, yes, have you read Huck Finn? That's what I'm concerned about. Jim is one of the best-written characters in American literary history.

Do you understand how hard it is to create a fully human character? Writing is really hard work, and we all write into our imaginations.
We write into our fantasies, we write up to the limit of what we understand about reality, and we write with our whole selves.

It's hard for anyone---white, black, or otherwise---to have a "whole self" that is free of racist ideas, bc racist ideas are everywhere.
