Abstract:
Chester Himes’ Harlem Cycle, the series of black detective fiction comprising nine novels, made him one of the most prominent black detective fiction writers in the U. S. His representation of Harlem in the series, however, has been criticized as a sensational and unreal geography distorted for a popular market. This paper intends to verify the validity of the criticism regarding Himes’s representation of Harlem. Examining the history of residential segregation by race in the U. S. cities and the resulting condition of Black residential areas, this paper proves that his representation of Harle

Abstract:
Abstract Toni Morrison spent much of her career detailing the unpredictability of African American existence within a racist society, with a special focus on patriarchal violence and medical apartheid against women’s bodies. Yet Morrison also limns out alternative modes of healing within a Black metacultural framework that moves between Nigeria, Brazil, and Egypt. As we move forward from the COVID-19 crisis, research has suggested that training more African American doctors, nurses, and physician assistants might curtail medical racism. Morrison’s fiction looks to a more basic level in which l

Abstract:
Abstract Although a number of scholars have tackled the figure of the Black folk-healer in Toni Morrison’s novels, the character deserves greater attention in the present moment for the insights she provides into two contemporary catastrophes: the coronavirus pandemic and the structural racism that precipitates rampant violence against brown-skinned people in the United States. Beginning with M’Dear, the elderly woman who is brought in to treat Cholly’s Aunt Jimmy in The Bluest Eye (1970), I survey descriptions of several root workers, hoodoo practitioners, and midwives in Morrison’s fiction,

Abstract This article discusses various issues of race and law enforcement in the USA through the lenses of critical race theory and Black radical tradition, precisely to convey the fact that racism is still alive and well in the USA and reverberates through the criminal justice system against Black people. American legal scholars are divided on which legal methodology is most appropriate in addressing racial cum legal issues. However, this article argues that tackling the systemic racism and the perilous proclivity of the police in brutalizing Black people in the USA cannot be adequately achi

With the emergence of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), people are being exposed to an increased volume of crime-related information, which induces fear. While the fear of crime has been explored around people's experiences with crime, little is known about how people frame their conversations about crime online. In this study, we explore how citizens talk about crime on Reddit. By collecting crime conversations from the subreddit r/baltimore, we find that, on the surface, redditors discuss topics such as comparing crime rates in Baltimore with other cities in an effort to des

Roy Williams is one of the outstanding contemporary black British playwrights. His plays deal with issues of race, racism, nationalism, masculinity, working-class identities, sport, and intergenerational relationships. Through his plays, Williams tries to provoke his audience to a very essential issue which is that black people are part of the English society. He is against racism. He finds that sport is not far from racism therefore, he decides to write his Sports Plays. In these plays Williams depicts how the black players are treated by the white as if they are not English.

Abstract:
Racism is an integral part of racialized groups’ experiences as Whiteness continues to foster the power and privilege it affords to White people. This has resulted in the racialization of Black bodies inflicted by racism. For Black youth, escaping the coloniality of racism may seem to be an impossible task as racism is ubiquitous, and has been deeply embedded in societal structures for hundreds of years. However, a heightened consciousness of racism provides a platform to fight against racial injustice. Instead of being locked in systems of oppression whereby Black bodies are wounded, there is

Abstract Apartheid Analogy Accusations of apartheid today constitute one of the strongest moral condemnations a modern nation-state can face. The use of the concept of “apartheid” or “apartheid state” to describe Israel is one of the most common forms of denouncing the Jewish state in contemporary discourse, both in reference to contemporary Israel policies and the historical foundations of the state itself. To accuse Israel of apartheid is to activate the historical memory of the South African apartheid state, in which “whites” and “blacks” were segregated in virtually every area of political

Abstract The construction of race in early modern England relied upon the creation of non-Christian subjects. English colonial activity was largely directed against fellow Christians: Irish Catholics, Spanish Catholics, converted Africans or people of African descent. But the extermination or enslavement of a people becomes impossible to justify against acknowledged Christians. The means by which England becomes both ‘white’ and ‘Christian’ was a racial fiction that purged English Protestantism of Catholics and other Christians who were not regarded as properly part of the nation-state.

In all three of Chesnutt’s published novels, the complex social and political problems which are treated appear against the background of suppressed or tragically resolved interracial love and miscegenation.1 It is important to re member, however, th

One of the major indicators of racism is the collection of stereotypes used to demean and undermine minorities.

Abstract In many interracial situations, highly prejudiced people do not discriminate. And in many other situations, quite tolerant people do discriminate. These exceptions are shaped by the racial norms that operate in these situations. Strong norms against discrimination persuade many bigots to avoid discriminatory behavior. Wide acceptance of discrimination in other situations can cause even the tolerant to slip into discriminatory behavior. Thus, marked changes in racial norms can have major effects on individual behavior. These normative effects are contingent on how strong the norms are

These “colonizers who refused,” or at least resisted, complicated American colonial discourse on “race” by countering the growing power of the dominative and justificatory social fictions which would arbitrarily subjugate one “kind” of people in order to maintain the privilege of another.
