Contrasting 2 Essays on Morrison's 'Bluest Eye'
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page analysis of two essays on Toni Morrison's novel 'The Bluest Eye'—'Reconnecting fragments: Afro-American folk tradition in The Bluest Eye' by Trudier Harris posits that this novel is not only the story of destructive effects of inter-and intra-racial prejudice on young black girls , but is also a story of Afro-American folk culture in process. Susan Willis, likewise,--in her essay, 'I shop therefore I am: is there a place for Afro-American culture in commodity culture?'--addresses Afro-American culture, but she does so from a standpoint that examines its relationship to the overall commodity culture of mainstream white society.

Cornel West's "Race Matters": Xenophobia, Consumerism And Hedonism
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. In his book entitled "Race Matters," Cornel West claims that xenophobia, consumerism and hedonism are elements that serve to stifle any positive racial progress. The manner by which these three elements have a negative impact upon racial progress is, indeed, clear and can readily be witnessed in everyday society. Fear runs rampant between and among racial communities, often for no other reason than ignorance of the truth, illustrating West's contention that xenophobia continues to play an integral role in racial segregation. Consumerism, ever since its appearance in the latter part of the nineteenth century, has cultivated myriad hateful qualities that have served humanity no good purpose; one of the most instrumental is that of racial partition. And while hedonism might appear to represent one of life's most beneficial aspects, it actually perpetuates the separation between and among races. No additional sources cited.
