Looking for a clear statement
regarding racial bigotry by reading Chandler is as futile a
task as looking for a clear stance on sexual practices by
reading the Bible. Everybody has favorite passages of text
and favorite ways of interpreting those passages. My own take
is that Chandler was a man of his times, more enlightened
than some by his unflagging support of those who are used and
held down by the rich and powerful, but perhaps less
enlightened than he would have been had he lived at another
time.
