"Native Son" And American History X" - Dual Racial Intolerance
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Both Richard Wright's Native Son and director Tony Kaye's American History X chronicle the events that stem from racial intolerance, however, they do so from opposite ends of the spectrum. Derek Vinyard, Kaye's (1998) protagonist, turns to racial discord as a means by which to confront the reverse discrimination that has long plagued his neighborhood; only by adopting the vengeful mentality of a skin-head can he settle of score for his father and all other whites murdered by blacks. Wright's Bigger, by contrast, reflects the conventional components of racial intolerance by illustrating how blacks have been victimized by white supremacy. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

"Passing" By Nella Larsen
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Nella Larsen's Passing possesses many important components with regard to marriage that, if not taken in their direct context, will be overlooked by the average reader. It is essential to also look beyond the author's obvious intention with regard to the story's overall meaning so as not to miss the grand but elusive subtleties she includes about marital relationships. To be sure, Larsen's writing incorporates a significant amount of blatancy while also implying considerable obscurity, a dichotomy that has served to be the cornerstone of the author's works, which have successfully stood the test of time. Without question, this tale of social woe provides a unique insight into the relationships among men, women, society and the overall expectations made of each one with regard to the confines of marriage. No additional sources cited.
