Poor fellow. He isn't sure of exactly who or what he hates. He just knows it has something to do with having a drop of African blood and having one of those funny-sounding "muslin" names.
Great memory, too. My mom took some advanced Bishop Method tailoring classes, and she used to talk about "making a muslin". She wasn't a quilter, but the girl could match plaids like nobody's business!
Sometimes my heart breaks for the stupid, bigoted and unintelligent.
