dc.description.abstract | The immense popularity of Gone with the Wind, over eighty years after being
published, is now often tarnished by accusations of rampant racism. The character of
Mammy, especially, has been criticized as stereotypical and perpetuating historically
inaccurate ideas of the role of black Mammies. With the double-fold intention of giving
a voice to black characters mostly silent in Gone with the Wind and counteracting these
accusations of a negative portrayal of African-Americans, the Margaret Mitchell Trust
commissioned an authorized sequel recounting Mammy’s story, Ruth’s Journey, by
Donald McCaig. This article analyzes the image of Mammy Ruth’s Journey presents,
and considers whether it has successfully fulfi lled these goals. | spa |
