Maya Shedd's Temple
Welcome to Maya Shedd’s Temple: Literary Home of Linda Sue Grimes
My literary home is a place where my creative writing efforts reside. My first love in life was music and poetry, both of which I have pursued in fits and starts for many decades. In addition to songs and poems, I write essays featuring commentaries on poems, and about history, philosophy, politics, and spirituality. I also create vegetarian/vegan recipes.
Thank you for visiting!

The Science of Race and the Metaphor of Color
EXCERPT: According to Paul Wolff Mitchell, an anthropologist at the University of Pennsylvania, "[Morton's race theory] had a lot of influence, particularly in the South."
Morton's pernicious legacy stemmed from the lack of scientific knowledge at the time regarding human DNA and how physical characteristics are passed on from one generation to the next.
