Discuss the way black people are treated by white people in the short story ‘Crackling Day’ by Peter Abrahams.
Just a few years ago black people were segregated from modern day society- whites. They were treated unfairly and harshly. They were treated like mud on the sole of someones shoe. This happened in all p[arts of the world. Blacks were physically and mentally separated by the whites. They would have their own toilets, buses, seats etc all because of their skin colour. South Africa was no exception to this as the story ‘Crackling Day’ shows. It is the story of a black family in Elsburg, South Africa. It tells us of their life style in a racist society set many years ago.
