God's Step Children

Naomi, a light-skinned Black child, is abandoned by her mother and taken in by the virtuous Mrs. Saunders. As she grows, her fixation with whiteness turns her against her own race, and she is sent to a convent. Hopelessly in love with her adoptive brother Jimmie, Naomi agrees to marry his friend but is repulsed by his darker skin and unrefined ways.
