| dc.description.abstract | By using the theory of Black feminism, which was first developed by a group known as Combahee River Collection; a Black feminist organization, on Toni Morrison's God Help the Child, this research examines the liberation of the oppressed Black woman, Bride, and her profound transformation from traumatic childhood to well-defended adulthood. Black feminism is a diverse movement that highlights the social and political realities of African American women. In the novel, racism, sexism, and the skin-hierarchies within the Black community are all discussed. These interwoven forms of oppression are referred to as "double jeopardy," and the philosophy of Black feminism seeks to destroy them. The experiences of Black women, who are frequently ignored in the language of mainstream feminism, are traumatized by the racial prejudice towards dark skin. Black feminism gives black women more power by encouraging self-acceptance. By destroying the oppressive institutions that interact with race, gender, and class, womanism focuses on establishing equality as well as equity. | |
