    On the contrary, Oprah is a contemporary Black female who grew up in the segregated South during the 1950's. In choosing such a contemporary figure I realize that I run the risk of encountering deep divisions between those who value Oprah's work and those who feel it is just nonsense entertainment.

We met (again) by accident, as I was unaware of her summer job as the ice-cream parlor girl, when I walked into the Sugar Shoppe, my shoulders hunched and aching from having slaved all morning over my typewriter.
