The paper explores the suppression of African-American cultures and histories, particularly in relation to black women, due to the dominance of white culture as well as patriarchal and industrialized environments. Through the perspective of black American feminism, this paper delves into Morrison's depiction of family and space, analyzing the reasoning behind character and spatial choices, and examining how these elements contribute to the protagonist's complex oppression. Toni Morrison intertwines these themes to highlight the intricacies of interracial and intraracial dynamics within the various spheres of individuals, families, and communities. The breakdown of the family experienced by black women, as seen in Pecola's family in the novel, is the result of both external cultural pressures-such as mainstream acculturation—and internal psychological pressures inflicted by parental influences. The paper concludes that Morrison depicts the domestic sphere as a product of racism, sexism, and classism. The familial space of black women is plagued by a hegemonized, sexualized, and focalized identity, manifested through domestic violence familial disintegration. |
