In class we have been reading the novel The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman, and in this book there is a lot of stereotypical things coming from both the white and black people. For example Jane thinks that all the southern white people are out to get them, and that the only person who was nice to here lives up north so everyone there must be nice. Jane thinks about this every time she sees a white man. In this book there is an old white man that is nice to Jane, and he shows her on a map where to go. He tells exactly where to go and some things to avoid, and even if he tries do discourage her to get her to turn around and go back he was still nice to her, and he even feeds them.
