Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Argue and explain how one small detail of the story helps shape one larger theme of the story. It needs to be at least 1500 words.

“The conscience of the court” by Zora Neale Hurston explores the theme of racism, justice and loyalty using the realities of the societal aspects of the 1950’s as well as the various events that took place in the courtroom. The author portrays Laura as one loyal person for she narrates that Miss Clairborne was leaving town not because she never wanted to repay the money she owed, but because she wanted to begin her life all over again after the passing on of her husband. The court also proves that Laura is loyal to her master when they look at the promissory note and determine that the complainant never understood the reasons why Clairborne left. Beasley was only in a hurry to take up the property of Miss Clairborne instead of giving her time to repay the loan. Laura is also painted as a loving person for her love even crossed the racial boundaries. Despite the fact that she is not of the same descent as her employer, she is committed to her even in times of trial in court. She has even stayed in jail for three weeks but she is still not interested in proving her innocence in court. (Hurston, 161) She is also shows loyalty beyond races when she forgives her employer for not coming to her rescue when she was in jail for fighting to protect Miss Clairborne’s property in her absence. ...

Laura on the other hand is not aware that the concept of race determines and shapes her life as well as the environment she lives in. She is also aware of the gender and class differences since her parents were workers to Clairborne’s family just as she is. According to Laura Kimble, only the black people live a life that is determined by their races and not the whites. The story also looks at the class position of the black women and how it is the foundation of the lives they live. This is brought out in court when Laura stands before the judge and states that she cannot be able to comprehend the language that is being used on her. In the beginning of the story, Laura is shown as resembling the race she belongs to. "Though spare of fat, she was built strongly enough, all right. An odd Negro type, gray-green eyes, large and striking, looking out of a chestnut-brown face" (Zora Neale Hurston, 771). Through the character of Laura Lee Kimble, the writer of the story shows that the concept of race is not of essence to several people. The author indicates that the color of the skin does not really matter to Laura Lee Kimble who assumes that every individual is equal to one another, in spite of the race they belong to. Hurston shows this by narrating to us on the background of and particularly how her childhood was like. Laura’s parents are in slavery and she is not taken as a slave for she is considered a young girl. Despite the fact that her parents were slaves, their employers never treated them as slaves. Laura and Clairborne regarded themselves as siblings despite their different races.
