The Construct of Ethnicity as revealed in Nella Larsen’s “Quicksand”, Amy Tan’s “The Joy Luck Club”, and Toni Morrison’s “Paradise”
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page discussion of ethnicity as it is reflected in these three novels. The author of this paper emphasizes that the constructs of ethnicity be interpreted in either positive or negative ways. Larsen’s novel, for example, provides us with a glimpse of the many negativities associated with being of mixed white and black heritage in the 1920s while Morrison’s novel reveals that even all-black communities and the individuals that live within them can be fraught with trouble and dissent. Amy Tan’s “The Joy Luck Club”, however, provides a much more positive look at the challenges and potential rewards which can be associated with ethnicity. No additional sources are listed.

The Cultural Dislocation of the African American Slaves
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the various ways in which African American slaves had to suffer from cultural dislocation. The African American slaves suffered a great deal from cultural dislocation from their native homeland in Africa for over two centuries. Cultural dislocation occurs not only from a physical separation from a landscape but also from the customs, religions, laws, family structures and identity which are intrinsically linked with that landscape. Within the African American slave community, personal identities which were linked with their tribal and family units were stripped away upon their arrival in America without being allowed to be reformed. While many slaves adapted to their new circumstances by customizing their community structure and their religion to that of their plantation and Christianity, the basic understanding of the status of a slave was also dislocated as slaves within Africa are allowed rights and often intermarried within the community. The basic condemnation of rights as humans and this division based on color was alien to the Africans and compounded the ability of the slaves to comprehend their situation within their new landscape. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
