Class and the polotics of writing-Edit

In this story she talks about how her story wasn't published because she is black and the big publishing companies didn't want to hear it. I wonder if this was really true or is she playing the race card like we said in class. Many black authors got published by big companies and were successful. I don't believe it had anything to do with race. I think if she just tried harder she could get published. She could have been right and they actually didn't publish her cause she was black. Even if that were the case she should still write and write until eventually they realized how hard she was trying and it didn't matter what skin color she was. By her writing that they didn't accept her because she was black just hurts her because if that wasn't true they are mad they she accused them of something.If it was true and she wrote bad about them they will be upset as well. So it was a lose lose situation for her by doing this. I believe that a better idea would have been to form a team of people who felt the same way and sent a nice letter to the publishing company explaining how they felt. Today many black people get there works published and many don't. I believe that the companies base it on skill because why would they reject a piece of writing just because that person is black? If they see a good piece of writing that would sell then they would take it.
