Only fourteen years old at the time, Marie trusts her impulses to get what she wants: Which was to be the first Indian reservation girl to become a saint. Marie is not of full Indian descent; she was very defensive about having some Native American relatives, telling the reader that she doesn't "have that much Indian blood" and was just as "light" as the other nuns were. In fact, she was so sensitive about that, eventually, she denied having any Native American blood, even with family members. Marie was raised in the bush, she only went to town for Sunday Mass and school. Marie didn’t seem to mind going to church because prayer is kind of a great equalizer and “she could pray with the best of them”, which meant it would be impossible for the nuns to reject or look down at her in disdain.

In Cooking in Other Women’s Kitchens: Domestic Workers in the South, 1865-1960, author Rebecca Sharpless illustrates how African American women in the American South used domestic work, such as cooking, as a stepping stone from their old lives to the start of their new ones.
