The setting plays a big role in the story. It is set in the late 60s which was in a perod of great racial tension. This is a main part of the story, because it is half of the reason that they left their town. Another reason is that it is set in South Carolina, which is known to have more racial tension than the rest of the US. Once Lily and Roseanne Made it to Tibouron, They were in a very relaxed environment. Since they were living with a black family, there was obviously very little racial tension,exceot agianst Lily.
Which I think it is ironic, considering they left to get away from this tension.
