a divide between them. With her different views of how things are in Jackson, Mississippi she decides not to sit around and do nothing. She decides to write an anonymous novel herself as she is a journalist about 12 black maids and their stories of working for white people and raising their white babies “I’d like to write this showing the point of view of the help. The coloured women down here.”. I liked Miss Skeeter because she was different and didn’t follow the rules. I liked how she made a stand about something that she didn’t think was right in the world, she wanted to make a difference. She didn’t just sit around and play bridge, she made something out of herself, and didn’t need a man to define her. When she was writing the novel about the maids she was always making sure that the situation was safe and she didn’t want the maids to get into trouble “Miss Skeeter, we gone have to be real careful.” “We will, I promise.” because what she wanted to do was against the law. Her saying I promise to Aibileen shows that she truly didn’t want them to get in trouble. I admired how brave she was for writing the book even though she knew she could get into a lot of trouble and she was breaking the law a number of times when writing the novel. Skeeter being brave and breaking the law to make a stand can relate to similar situations in society for example when Rosa Parks wouldn't stand up for a white person because there was no seats left. Like Skeeter she was brave and took a stand even though she knew she could in get trouble.
