**UPDATE** We liked this story so much, we wanted to compare it with "Sweat" by Zora Neale Hurston which has some similar themes explored in a different manner. At the end of that video, we have a segment where we compare these two short stories and themes. Please feel free to check it out for more comparison notes: https://youtu.be/g87mIBBjubw
