Miss Celia Foote
The Help is HUGE right now. Many aspects of the book warrant a warm feminist discussion, but I choose Miss Celia Foote. Her strength, committment to individuality, and unwillingness to forget where she came from, inspire me to do the same. Each day, and each moment, is an opportunity to choose who we are, and Miss Celia emulates that theory in her actions.

yes! she really is one of those rough edged but sweet on the inside mars bar! I love how even though she is from a white trash neighbourhood knowing nothing but her gut instinct will go to such lengths to really protect the ones she loves and hold on to them with probably the only bond of trust she may have ever had. So Minny and her husband.
