The Help tells the story of black maids working for white families in Jackson, Mississippi in the 1960s. Skeeter, a white woman, works to write down the personal stories of Aibileen, Minny, and other maids. Their stories expose the racism and inequality faced by black domestic workers despite their close relationships with the white families they serve. Skeeter hopes publishing their stories will help combat racial injustice and change societal attitudes of the time.

4. The Help is a book based in the history of the
privileges and differences between maids and
ladies, in the years 60 in a city located in the
United States called “Mississippi”. One white girl
shows how she helps a black girl to have a better

5. What have surprised me?
• The first thing is how the maids look after the children of the
ladies, and the maids leave their children in the hands of other
maids.
• The second thing is that the black personscan´t use the same
things that use the white people.
•The third thing is that the black people can´t go with the white
persons in the same bus, can´t use the same bathrooms, can´t
eat together and can´t live together.
• The fourth thing is that one black person insults a white person
their husband kill the black perrson.
•The fifth thing is how the maids look after the childrens, like as if
they were his children.
