moosegurl2 's review for:
American Spy
by Lauren Wilkinson
"My mother had been gone for years, but I still had good home training. I spoke and dressed well, did well in school, accepted that I had to be twice as upright for white folks to think I was half as virtuous."
"Pop had middle-class values: He taught me to pay my taxes in full, depend on a salary, and to avoid debt at all costs. Agathe and I never talked about money--not once--and she never worked outside the home, but the fact that she had to have squirreled some away to come back to Martinique connected money and autonomy in my mind. Robbie thought money was the root of all evil (which I took as a poor excuse for why he never had any); Helene saw money as power."
