A Marxist Analysis of Meet Samantha: An American Girl
Join me for an unnecessary deep dive into the class politics of a 1980s children's book. Is Samantha Parkington a classic wealthy philanthropist, or is she a working class ally in the making?

Samantha Parkington and Anne Shirley Cuthbert are so similar in my mind, not just because they are orphans being raised by someone old enough to be their grandmother, but because of their curiosity and generosity, as well as their propensity for speaking out of turn and getting lost in daydreams, and their romantic view of everything around them.

I absolutely agree! I think they have a lot in common. In a lot of ways Anne is like Samantha and Nellie's lovechild lol
