Zora Neale Hurston ruffled plenty of feathers when it came to how she crafted her female characters. Many people were not getting it correct, but she knew how to humanize a woman who did herself. Except other male literary giants did not like that. This is a conversation over respectability, representation, and who was supposed to witness it.
Keepin' It a Bean is a series where Marquise explores life, social issues, and culture over a cup of coffee with some of his closest friends and creative peers.
