Summary "Hazel" by Mary White Ovington is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Hazel Tyler, a young girl of color, who navigates her life in a racially divided society after moving from Boston to Alabama to live with her grandmother. The narrative explores themes of childhood innocence, race, and familial love as Hazel adjusts to her new environment while grappling with her identity. The opening portion of "Hazel" introduces us to the main character, a young girl named Hazel Tyler, who is stuck inside on a rainy day and longs for a more exciting life. As she interacts with her mother and peers, her thoughts reveal her preoccupations with clothes and the struggles of her family's financial situation following her father's death. We witness her imaginative play with a friend as they act out a Bible story, showcasing Hazel's creativity and her desire to escape reality. The contrasting dynamics of her home life, alongside her aspirations for a brighter future, set the stage for the broader journey Hazel will undertake as she moves to Alabama, leading to critical reflections on her place in a racially stratified society.
