| dc.description.abstract | The paper textually explores Chinua Achebe's No Longer at Ease to depict the long-term E impacts of colonization enacted by the British colonizers in West Africa, and how feminist violence creates a double consciousness which then depicts social, cultural, and economic difficulties still faced by the modern African women. The colonizers considered the Nigerians as corrupt, lazy, and mentally sick, which shows the supremacy and imperial nature of the colonizers towards the colonized Nigerians. The main contention of this paper is to show how colonizers used racist violence, propaganda literature, infusion of the caste system, and an inferiority complex identity crisis as a tool for injecting hatred into the minds of Nigerian women and Double consciousness was the effect which created a psychological challenge for Afro-Americans, especially women. Women are considered valueless and associated merely with their sexual identities. | |
