White People Stereotypes in The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman

In English class we are reading The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman, and it is a book about slaves being freed and they are trying to go north. In this book, there are many stereotypes that aren't true at all. One of the major stereotypes is that everyone thinks that all of the white people were bad. Most of the white people were mean to the slaves, but there are also a lot of white people who were good to the slaves. One example of a white person that was not falling into that stereotype was the old man that let Jane and Ned into his house and gave them food while he showed them the right way to Ohio. Another example of a white person not falling under that stereotype is when Job gave Jane and Ned a ride on his cart and gave them a place to sleep and food. Job also took them to Mr. Bone to get some work. There are many more stereotypes in this book, but that is the main one showed.
