Abstract

Racism is a mode of thought that seeks to connect a set of immutable physical traits with a person’s moral and intellectual traits. It makes a distinction between superior and inferior racial groups based on physical characteristics. Both prejudice and racism are ways of thinking. In his writings, Richard Wright examines racism as an ideology and reveals how racism changes over time because of modern society. This paper examines how racism affects both blacks and whites and also the repercussions in the novel Uncle Tom’s Children.
