HelpRe: Need name for a cunning half brother...
in reply to a message by flossie
You still need to be sensitive to the fact that you are writing about a character of African American heritage/descent in a time of legal slavery which is why I recommended Black authors specifically.
Please be aware of racist racial categorisation and hypodescent. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadroon I don’t have any sources right now (read: I am tired and have a lot of writing of my own to be doing) but I have read historic accounts of people who were only 1/8 Black being removed from Whites-only spaces.
This is one of my current areas of study in literature :)
