Dramatising anti-racism in Branden Jacob-Jenkin's an octoroon

Abstract EN

This paper is based on social and literary critique.

Literature reflects human existence through expressing a vast spectrum of human emotions, feelings, and behaviours.

People can transcend human creativity into something larger than life and beyond their imagination through literary art.

Numerous references, scientific investigations, and literary works have been written about Racism.

An octoroon by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins is one of the literary works that analyse such phenomena.

The researchers are called literary critics since she evaluates and analyse the selected literary work to achieve the study's objectives.

The researchers look at this literary endeavour from two angles: intrinsic and extrinsic and then apply the genetic structuralism theory.

This paper tries to answer questions such as "Do Blacks in America confront a variety of forms of white racism? " and " What are the important things for Blacks to continue their struggle against racism and win equity? "
