Zora Neale Hurston was a writer of both fiction and non-fiction, and here we have an example of each, with a common theme of dealing with the aftermath of slavery for African Americans. Compare and contrast some of the different approaches Hurston took when writing about this topic in fiction and in non-fiction. Point to specific examples and cite evidence from both texts to support your analysis. You may substitute, or include, a comparison of Douglass’ piece as well.
