Local doctor Frank Hayden is one of the many people in the Bentrock community to overstep his power and mistreat it. By sexually abusing a debilitated minority – Sioux women – he was able to commit his crimes under a cover of fear, social status, and common racial prejudice. However, when Gail tells Wes

The main theme in Montana is racism and how strongly it played its part in society back in 1948

As the novel explores how race operates between whites and Indians, it displays the way that race shapes Arnold’s life as a mixed Indian (half-white, half-Indian). Early in the novel, Arnold, describes his experience with the dentist

Wes’ brother Frank is a prime example of the abuse of power in return to get greater power and dominance. Frank uses he’s ‘power’ of being a doctor in the wrong manner and in once corrupted way. He abuses Indiana girls by making inappropriate sexual advances towards them in the fashion of rapping and assaulting them. In the novel Julian wants Frank to be set free and doesn’t see the matter that Frank has committed many serious crimes and they have had serious repercussions on the community and they can’t go unpunished. Nobody knows that more than Wes and Julian Hayden.

Richard Henry Pratt states that “all the Indian there is in the race should be dead. Kill the Indian in him, and save the man” (Senier, 375). This terrifying idea is somewhat exemplified in Ramona. Despite Helen Hunt Jackson’s best intentions, Native American identity is sacrificed in order for Native American characters to survive or even be seen as human beings. Jackson sacrifices Ramona and Alessandro to appeal to a white audience. Native American identity should not have to be watered down or erased, especially in a novel advocating for Native American rights. I argue that “literary sugar-pilling”(Senier, 22) in the form of Jackson’s erasure of Native American identity can be just as racist and dehumanizing as the anti-Native American beliefs that Jackson was trying to dispel.

The Novel “Native Son” by Richard Wright was adapted into a film in 1986 and was directed by Jerrold Freeman. Focused on the main character, Bigger Thomas has lived life in poverty trying to make it in a world that has proven to him that they feel he is inferior because of the color of his skin. Plagued by fear, anger and shame, Bigger was in a fierce fight within himself to fit in without exploding. The purpose of this essay is to examine Richard Wright’s adaptation of Native Son and to discuss how Bigger is guilty through relation of the cause and effect to racism, fear and psychological stress from those forces.

Native Son by Richard Wright Who is the victim in a prejudiced civilization? The dominant group or the minority? "Native Son," a novel by Richard Wright, focuses on the effects of racism on the oppressors and the oppressed. It establishes that in an ethnically prejudiced society discrimination comes from everywhere, and most monumental occurrences only contribute to its decline. The story is set in Chicago in the 1930s. The

Richard Wright’s novel, Native Son, addresses racial issues within the society through the character of Bigger Thomas. Bigger Thomas is a young black man living in the Chicago area in the 1930’s where he is hired as a chauffeur by a white family, the Dalton’s. As a black man, Bigger has a prominent feeling of anxiety and fear about everything that he does around white people, which is instilled in him from the media's racial opinions. The frequent use of media throughout the novel illuminates the prejudices and racism that push Bigger to act on his fear.

From the perspective of new criticism about only looking for a meaning in the text, I think new critics would be interested in page 20 where the narrator, Adam Ewing, has a vision about himself speaking Indian language, shaming his family causing them run away and he tries ‘striving[ly] to rectify this misunderstanding.’ His vision is interesting because when we are looking at what happening in it, we’ll see that he has a fear about becoming another race which is not White, and this shows the critics that the narrator has a concept about superiority of race in his mind. Related to the incident, the other pages of his journal show Ewing’s concern about race, Whites as a higher status then other races like Indians, Blacks and so on and a duty

Here, the dominance of preconception in society, deprives the disenfranchised as both Montana 1948 and To Kill A Mockingbird evoke responders to consider the indecorous conduct and inequality of the societies reflected in these novels. Correspondingly, the mentality of the Hayden’s is portrayed through David’s Grandfather when he states, "Screwing an Indian… You don't lock up a man for that." This direct speech presents that the white population believed Indians were considered less than human beings. “Screwing” refers to sexual assault committed by Frank and the statement “you don’t lock up a man for that” displays ‘man’ as white individuals, portraying that because he did it to an Indian, it isn’t classified as a crime. Here, the biased opinions that sexual assault isn’t a delinquency due to an individuals race, allows enfranchised individuals to obtain authority over the disenfranchised. Thus, Watson challenges responders to consider the detrimental consequences Indians experienced in the 1940s.

According to Henderson, “Historians of the new imperialism have tended to ignore the parallel histories of empire in nineteenth-century British North America”. He argues that in recent years, an increasing number of corresponding and connective histories have had the desire to locate early Canada as one site of an empire among others. He stresses how republicanism and a responsible government rely almost exclusively on published archival materials that have been used for a very long period (at least in Canada) by those who are interested in the history of the struggle for a responsible government.

Richard Wright’s novel, Native Son, depicts the life of the general black community in Chicago during the 1930’s. Though African Americans had been freed from slavery, they were still burdened with financial and social oppression. Forced to live in small, unclean quarters, eat foods on the verge of going bad, and pay entirely too much for both, these people struggled not to be pressured into a dangerous state of mind (Bryant). All the while, they are expected to act subserviently before their oppressors. These conditions rub many the wrong way, especially Bigger Thomas, the protagonist of the story. Though everyone he is surrounded by is going through all the same things that he is, growing up poor and uneducated has made Bigger angry at the whole world. You can see this anger in everything he does, from his initial thoughts to his final actions. Because of this, Bigger Thomas almost seems destined to find trouble and meet a horrible fate. Wright uses these conventions of naturalism to develop Bigger’s view of the white community(). With all of these complications, Bigger begins to view all white people as an overwhelming force that drags him to his end. Wright pushes the readers into Bigger’s mind, thoroughly explaining Bigger’s personal decay. Even Wright himself says that Bigger is in fact a native son, just a “product of American culture and the violence and racism that suffuse it” (Wright).

Throughout the novel there are examples of racist attitudes and oppression by the Anglo- Indians towards the natives. Major Callendar boasts about torturing an injured Indian youth by putting pepper on his shattered face; Mr Mc Bryde expresses supercilious views of the lust the Indians show for white women; Ronny Heaslop is ignorant; Miss Dereck shows anger towards her Indian employers; and Mr Turton is arrogant towards the
