I just finished reading "The Bluest Eye," by Toni Morrison and if you haven't read it, it deals with issues on racial segregation in 1941. Mostly the Jim Crow laws were still in effect, but it seemed to be that the darker your skin was the worst off you were, and if you happened to have lighter skin you were able to advance in society. But whats worse is that African Americans in this time period actually thought that white was beautiful and Black ugly
