What Members Thought
This is my second time reading The Color Purple. The abuse and violence to African-American women of the 1930s horrifies me. The placement of women as second class citizens with no rights is appalling. The sisterhood of Celie, Nettie, Shug, Mary Agnes, Sophia, Olivia and Tashi is emotionally charged. I like how the novel is written in a series of letters. Each drawing the reader further into a hyperemotional state. I am thankful to Alice Walker for increasing my horizons.
