The biography isn’t opinionated or thesis based so there really isn’t for for bias information. It simply outlines the author Richard Wrights life which leads to the readers analysis and opinion on his texts. I think this is why the source is also credible because it isn’t opinionated but includes enough information for a readers analysis in order to make our own inferences but is still very insightful and information based .

The book spoke on all of these injustices that occurred in real life . For example , the Main character Bigger Thomas possessed a mindset that was odd , he was torn between being angry and confused about the color of his skin so it drove him to act unjustly . He did not trust himself to trust anyone including authority discussed in Video #1. However , Bigger felt that he had to take this route because he couldn’t trust his authority enough to protect him.

I plan to incorporate these term in discussion when I talk about discrimination and oppression , because as a black man with this type of title under your belt , I can infer that life wasn’t easy but Richard Wright had an upper hand or advantage to most blacks , but he understood the way of life.

Discrimination is also covered in this text as blacks were not allowed to access library cards , so they had to go to whites to access their benefits .

Paying close attention to his accomplishments throughout life helps to better understand the characters presented in the text as Bugger Thomas for example was a direct representation of poor Black Men in not only Chicago , but everywhere . Understanding Bigger Thomas in Native son shows what hardships every Richard Wright had to face himself without directly vocalizing all that he went through so he demonstrated it in his writing . For example , Bigger Thomas didn’t have much of any education and Richard Wright didn’t have any more than a ninth grade education . However I think it’s ironic that Richard weight wrote about these black man dominated by white oppression but he himself were much different than these characters . He fought the same fight but he accomplished so much . This shows that blacks can accomplish things , it’s not impossible .

Residences of black homes were interviewed to further justify this .

I’m not just referring to the color of ones skin , but deeper how the color of ones skin determines their fate . This video relates to our text Native son because a lot of the issues present in Baltimore occurred for Bigger Thomas , which further magnifies taut it doesn’t matter where you come from , colored people will always have to struggle. In Baltimore , blacks are placed in restricting area taut lack resources such as water and sanitation , and were surrounded by rat infestation , the exact same way Bugger Thomas was forced to live in Native Son. Bigger a Thomas also lacked education , Hence the reason he did not take the same oath as Dalton’s former employee . As discussed in the video , less education brings lower income . This video further confirmed the injustices of colored people. In terms of police activity , it’s ironic that Bugger killed those two women to feel trusting of himself , almost incredible because he was dangerous . The video started how black people are forced to find other means of living and survival when they can’t trust the authority the same way Bigger did.

Further detailed topics that discuss the outline of the unjust racial system include the New Deal leading up to the National Housing act of 1934 organized to produce economic relief . This implied 30 year mortgages and fixed interest rates .
