Charles W. Chestnutt: The House Behind the Cedars (1900)
[ send me this paper ]
(9 pp) The success of "passing" for white dangles in front of those with "mixed blood," in the South of the post-Civil war. Education and training may make "the passing," easier to accomplish, but still maintains a social fragility, that is always in danger of collapsing. Chestnutt mines this psychological tension, as we wish for our major characters to succeed, and at the same time realize the odds and the history, that they are working against.

Chinua Achebe's "A Man For The People"
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Nigerian existence may have been significantly oppressive under the rule of British imperialism; however, the struggles that Africans faced after this rule had been eliminated served to more defiantly strengthen their quest for independence. In Chinua Achebe's critic of African politics in "A Man For The People," the fictional account becomes alarmingly lifelike, inasmuch as the coup that ultimately overthrows Nanga's system of abuse eerily and directly mirrors the real-life coup that takes place in 1966.
