A woman carries a baby on her back.
It is against the law for black servants t live under the same roof as their employers. In private home, servant would have separate little room in backyard. Newspapers are her carpet, fruit crates her chairs and table.
Dogs are well tended by black servant, and well fed.
Servants are not forbidden to love. Woman holding child said, "I love this child, though she'll grow up to treat me just like her mother does. Now she is innocent."
Living in her "kaya" out back, servant must be on call six days out of seven and seven nights out of seven.
She lives a lonely life apart from her family. In white suburbs there are no recreation centers open t black servants.
