Opinion

Eudora Welty's Jackson: 'The Help' In Context

In Jackson, Miss., in 1963, three very different women — from left, Skeeter Phelan (Emma Stone), Minny Jackson (Octavia Spencer) and Aibileen Clark (Viola Davis) — build an unlikely friendship around a secret writing project in The Help, based on the novel by Kathryn Stockett.

August 22, 2011 In its first weekend, The Help grossed $2.5 million. But author W. Ralph Eubanks recommends Eudora Welty's "Where Is the Voice Coming From?", featured in The Collected Stories of Eudora Welty to show the full picture of a racially charged decade.
