Marie Harris is Aech’s (Helen’s) mother. She is a black woman who believes that the OASIS is the “best thing” to happen to women and people of color because it allows them to use a white male avatar and move through the world without being obstructed by racism and sexism. However, she retains prejudices of her own, and kicks Aech out of the house when Aech reveals that she is a lesbian.
