She also felt it was insulting to blacks to say they would be incomplete and stunted human beings unless they were forcibly integrated with whites. (What has happened to such simple common sense? It has been destroyed by that same liberalism that has been almost universally adopted by all “conservatives” today.) Here is a letter to the editor Hurston wrote in August 1955 explaining her views.
