The Novel

Jim Crow laws

Where can we see in the novel? With which character?

The difficulty in relations between black men and women had its source in white male- dominated society

 Men were expected to control the family and had status over women  This attitude filtered into black culture  The black male, unlike his white counterpart, was humiliated daily for the color of his skin.  In frustration, many black males turned their anger towards women.  Black women then experienced the double oppression that Alice Walker explores in the novel.

Lynching, murder by a mob, was prevalent in the South from the 1880s to the 1930s

 Which character’s real father had been lynched in the 1900s because he had established a business that competed with white businesses?  White southern businessmen felt economically threatened  Retaliation by lynching went unchallenged until 1937  Southern senators killed the bill by not letting it come to a vote in the Senate.

 most African Americans were either Baptist or Methodist  the way they expressed their religion in church was much different from white congregations.  Infused into the services were elements from their African roots, particularly a distinct musical style and delivery of the sermon in a moving manner.  expressive physical movements, like clapping and swaying.  Baptists and Methodist opposed slavery  In 1816 religious leaders from the black community met in Philadelphia and established the African Methodist Episcopal Church (AME), which still has sizable congregations throughout the United States.
