Created to capture the pervasive patterns of difference caused by race - specifically, that the white hunters in "Race at Morning" carry good guns while Simon carries an old "britchloader slung on a piece of plow line" (298).

Not sure if it makes to consolidate with the other forms of identifying Jewishness. JHB
