One of the many subjects in Kindred deals with an imbalance of power. The patroller clearly
controls the situation, so why does he tear off the blanket Alice's mother wrapped around herself for modesty?

The patroller tearing off the blanket shows the power white men had over black people and the power men had over women.

Kindred is a story that focuses on the situation of black people during the Antellebelum period, which is known due to its extensive use of slavery. This issue is explored by Dana who is a modern woman that time travels to this period.

In this story, it is clear there are defined power relationships, the most common include:

  • White people but especially men control black people.
  • Men control women.

These power imbalances are shown in multiple situations, this includes one occasion, in which a patrol (white man) removes the blanket from Alice (a black woman) in order to humiliate her and show his power over her.
