Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Today we look at "The Goophered Grapevine" by Charles Waddell Chesnutt. One of the first nationally circulated works which was published by the Atlantic when Chesnutt was racially passing. With some great usage of a frame narrative to compare the past and present with power, let's talk about today's story!
