There comes a time when racial conflict rears its ugly head and affects the people who have no choice but to be engulfed within its fiery rage. These people were influenced greatly by their surroundings and were sometimes inspired artistically to express their own views of how they perceived this. Ralph Ellison and Anne Moody both (1.) are affected by the results of racial conflicts and racism, and the end result (2) is the production of two very moving books that share similar qualities. Both Invisible Man and Coming of Age In Mississippi express racial views through characters, setting, and thoughts and views through the narrator. Throughout the novel Invisible Man, Ralph Ellison (3) expressed his racial views through the use of symbols that are represented as characters. (A) Descriptive imagery (4) helped express Ellison's ideas through his characters. The narrator, who is the main character in Invisible Man, demonstrates that the black man is seen as invisible to the white people in America at the time when racism (5) peaked. Ellison felt that it was the black man's turn to take a stand for what was right, and through his narrator he states his view. "Social...equality." (Pg. 31). The courageous and daring narrator
Using comparison is a great tool, and Ellison and Moody make very extravagant points through their writings. Usage of plot conflicts helped build up the person that Moody was going to be and expressed the racial view of the author as well. "What? You weren't being smart, were you boy?" (Pg. "I was sick of having to worry about where my next penny was coming from and how I would get to school next year. Lastly, Ellison uses the major plot conflicts in his novel to express his views of racism. They quarreled and argued with him. Their view of how the black man plays a part in society is crucial. Anne Moody used similar use of characters in her autobiography. She grew up in a very poor and hate filled life. (D) Mainly, moving forward in life was the main goal for the narrator in Invisible Man. (E) One crucial conflict that is fought within Invisible Man, is the finding of the identity of the author. This is proven through the major conflicts in the novel.
