i'm not so sure...

"It is apparent that Forster wants people to have the ability to change, but in actuality, feels that no one can really change."

Even though this is just a forum, you would need to prove this by inciting evidence; otherwise, you can't convince me. I think Margaret and Mr. Wilcox both change for each other, so you have to find a way of proving me wrong.

It's also not sensible to compare change in race and class. You can potentially move up or down in class, but you can't have white skin if you don't have it.

I'm also not quite sure what you argument is; first you say that Forster and Smith don't believe that people can change and then say that they both do believe in change, just in limited change.
