    “Isn’t Nancy through in the kitchen yet?” Mother said. “It seems to me that she has had plenty of time to have finished the dishes.”

    “Let Quentin go and see,” Father said. “Go and see if Nancy is through, Quentin. Tell her she can go on home.”

    I went to the kitchen. Nancy was through. The dishes were put away and the fire was out. Nancy was sitting in a chair, close to the cold stove. She looked at me.

    “Mother wants to know if you are through,” I said.

    “Yes,” Nancy said. She looked at me. “I done finished.” She looked at me.

    “What is it?” I said. “What is it?”

    “I ain’t nothing but a nigger,” Nancy said. “It ain’t none of it my fault.”
