Topic: Discuss and analyze the individuals and aspects that lead the nameless protagonist to assume a white identity.
Order Description
A paper about James Weldon Johnson’s “The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man” this essay should be ten pages, using eight non-fiction secondary sources; the “Tragic Black Buck: Racial Masquerading in the American Literary Imagination” must be one of these sources. It needs a works cited page, which is not included in the ten pages. Some of the individuals and aspects in the novel are his teacher, black mom, white dad, the millionaire, doctor, men of the train, lynching, piano, rag time music, seeing his dad at the theatre, losing his money. Discuss his struggle with identity and struggling with racial passing. Also how music played deeper role in his life than he realized. And mention how Johnson used the unnamed protagonist to get across his own persona views of blacks But mainly focus on the factors that played a role in his life, that impacted his choice to racially pass as a white man. I need this paper by Tuesday Afternoon.
