In what ways does Soaphead Church's family history help to support the theme that racial self-hatred destroys families and indivduals?
In his letter to God, Soaphead states, "I did what You did not, could not, would not do: I looked at that ugly little black girl, and I loved her. I played You. And it was a very good show. I, I have caused a miracle. I gave her the eyes."
In what sense is Soaphead writing the truth when he says that he gave Pecola her blue eyes?
