Essay / Research Paper Abstract
5 pages in length. Richard Wright's Native Son establishes the fact that the black community has long been a constant victim of dehumanizing racism. Even though contemporary populations may not be held within the grips of slavery as their ancestors were for centuries, blacks still endure a type of social slavery by being forced to abide by white rule. Looking at and living with white America through the jaded eyes of Bigger Thomas is a direct indication of just how much the concept of No Man's Land perpetuates racial intolerance.

to illustrate that for nearly as long as man has existed, racism has been driving a wedge between the whites and blacks. Somewhere back in the beginning of civilization,
an unwritten law came into effect that proclaimed the white race better than all others, much more deserving of lifes benefits and privileges. This attitude, as Wright (1987) duly
