Do you think Crystal Smith Paul thought the Jim Crow era was bad? Maybe she should have hit the readers over the head with it a little bit more, just so we really get the idea. 

Crystal Smith Paul, please have a little faith that your readers will understand you. You don’t need to tell us that Jim Crow was bad. We know that. This book had great bones but needs no interpretation or thought if the point of the book is written out.
