The Help is by far the best book written to show how things were after the Civil War. How black where really treated? Like when Minny was sabotage by Ms Hill, ” she stole silvers from me” it makes me wonder to how hard life really was before, and if the blacks did not fight back, what would have happened now? would racism still exist? or discrimination against the blacks? To how much it must have broken Aibleen’s heart, after she have rasped their babies and “their babies turn out to be just like their mother “.  The unfairness and the injustice of the whole situation. How can one be so cruel enough to hurt one’s kind.  I know the pain of loving some one and for the me in return to hurt you, to push away and become the person that you would never suspect. After Constatnie raised skeeter , her mom did her the “favor” of firing her. That how she returned her debt. And all of this because she did not want to look bad in front of her. When that happens the feeling will never go away, the hurt the betrayal will have a stamp on the heart. It makes me wonder how did Constatine feel afterwards? .
