Minny works for Miss Walter, Miss's Hilly mother. Skeeter asserts how white women destroy the reputation of those they hate. Minny faces discrimination and racism when she works as a maid for Miss Walter. For instances, when Miss Hilly sends her mother to the old folks home and asks Minny to work for her, Minny refuses. Thus, Miss Hilly started rumors and tells all her friends that Minny is a thief in order to obligate Minny to work for her, so she will have no choice except to work for Hilly. As a result Minny is fired by Hilly that's why Minny became very angry towards Hilly and decides to take revenge.

Hilly thinks the blacks is different from the whites they can catch different diseases. Therefore, they will not allow using the same whites' bathroom. "Miss Hilly talk slow, like she spreading icing on a cake. You just tell Raleigh every penny he spends on the bathroom he'll get back when y'all sell this house. She nod like she agreeing with herself. All these houses they're building without maid's quarters? It's just plain dangerous. Everybody knows they carry different kinds of diseases than we do, I double"(8, 9). So the bathroom is considered a racist status in Mississippi and the main reason of blacks' anger.
