The relationship between Master Harold and the boys was very unique i must say. Master Harold was a white boy still in school and the boys, Willie and Sam were African Amerians employers working for Harold (or Hally as they called him) parents. Harold didnt really treat them as a white person would treat a African American worker back in those days. Harold and the boys would talk to eachother about mostly everything. The boys would goof around master Harold and thats wasnt something "normal" back in thoese day. Sam saw Hally with father eyes and Hally saw Sam as a big brother. Sam would always give Harold advices, he wanted to better him as a person. The relationship between Sam and Will was like a brother to brother relationship. Seems as if they knew eachother fror a long time. Also Sam seemed more mature and open minded then Willie and Harold were. Although Sam and Willie respected Harold and kept in mind that at the end of the day Harold was their master their realtionship was not like a normal white persons relationship with his Aferican American workers.
