Cry, The Beloved Country #2

When Potan writes about men and women I think that, surprisingly, they are treated equally. While opening the letter Kumalo and his wife seem to have a great amount of respect for each other. But in his writing he addresses  the women more properly than he does for the men. Before reading this book I assumed that the women would be treated a lot differently just because when the book was written. But I came to find that they are being treated fairly and have a good amount off respect for each other.
