Mae Mobley colors herself black in a school drawing because she was confused. By the end of the novel, little progress was made in dissolving racial stereotypes in Jackson, though blacks were allowed in white libraries. Charlotte was offended that Lulabelle went to a DAR meeting because she thought blacks had no business mingling with whites. While racial stereotypes still exist today, they are not as prevalent as in the novel, such as the stereotype that all black people are loud. Minny and Aibileen had different views of white people, with Minny feeling there should be boundaries between races regarding physical contact and thank yous, while Aibileen was more understanding and kind regardless of skin color.
