       Flannery O'Connor's racism

       I've read quite a lot of Flannery O'Connor's fiction and
       correspondence, but in recent years some new documents have come
       to light, revealing that she held some unmistakably racist
       attitudes--attitudes that don't come through in her stories, but
       now that we know that she held these clearly racist opinions,
       her works will probably be treated with less respect.
       An article discussing the new findings is in the New Yorker
       (June 20, 2020)--"How Racist Was Flannery O'Connor?"
