Feminism, Racism and Slavery in Toni Morrison’s novels

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the concepts of feminism, racism and slavery in Toni Morrison’s novels. Morrison deals with many social themes such as black people oppression in white societies, identity, violence, slavery, sexism. These issues play a vital role in the lives of people particularly black people. Oppression has many reasons in these societies such as skin color and women. Black people are victims of the dominant white societies. White people practice violence against black people in many ways. Black women struggle hard to find their identity among racist societies. Accordingly, Morrison’s works cover all these concepts practiced against her people and deals with each in a very distinctive way.
