Socially Unacceptable Mary Dalton
645 words
I believe Richard Wright's story, Native Son, is
an effective narrative. Richard Wright believes in
the immorality of oppression. He seems to believe

own experience of separatism. By using such a wide
range of characters, he gives the readers who are
not blacks exper...

school houses; severe self-reliance; steam-powered
railroads and individual freedom. All in all, we
seem to recall a well-scrubbed past. Maybe, as we
cross into the next century, it's time to take
another look at the so-called "good old days. "
Two very well written works that help to see the
