Scarlet Sister Mary is the story of a free-spirited woman's life in the post-Emancipation South [Carolina]. It is unique in its portrayal of an African-American community as capable of independent existence in the South at that time. The culture of the community is portrayed most interestingly and permeates through the religious, spiritual and even medical undertones of story.

Green Thursday : stories by
Julia Mood Peterkin(
Book
)
11 editions published between 1924 and 1998 in English and held by 405 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Vividly rendering the sights, sounds, smells, and sensations of a bygone rural south, these closely connected stories revolve around the sometimes tragic lives of a black farming couple, Killdee and Rose Pinesett. When it first appeared in the 1920s, Green Thursday's unsentimental portrayal of African Americans was startlingly ahead of its time - enough so to inspire hate mail from white Southerners accusing the author, herself white, of betraying her race. At the same time, however, Green Thursday was praised by reviewers and social observers from all quarters, including W.E.B. Du Bois, who called it "a beautiful book."
