Care to elaborate Sam?

It is certainly true that Margaret Mitchell was an ardent fan of Thomas Dixon's and she wrote to him in August 1536 to tell him so: "I was practically raised on your books, and love them very much. For many years I have had you on my conscience, and I suppose I might as well confess it now." Similarly the racial stereotyping exhibited in Gone With the Wind is arguably similar to that of Dixon's works.

You might want to amend your post.
