Many times we face situations out of our control, which results in us living vicariously through fictional characters. Thus, there are writers who used this strategy to help cope with the conflict. Wright and Baraka are authors, who lived during a time of segregation. Their experiences influence their creativity in coming up with their literary pieces. In the Dutchman and Native Son, the authors utilize a furious and fearful tone, symbols of a subway and the cross, and the juxtaposition of the main characters to effectively get their point across in these two literary pieces.
The tone expressed in Dutchman and Native Son is fury. Throughout these two pieces, the authors' tone portrays anger and fear towards racism and segregation. In Dutchman, Lula gambols with clay's heritage, "Come on, Clay let's do the thing...You middle-class black bastard. Forget your social-working mother for a few seconds and let's knock stomachs." The author's tone in this subject is apparent of ferocity and wrath. In Native son, the author's attitude for Bigger's character is fear. Throughout the book, fear comes into play each time Bigger encounters the White society. During that time period the author had gone through with the Jim Crow law, which is why the tone is fearful in the author's attitude.
In Dutchman and Native Son, each has their own symbols such as the "subway" and "cross" to signify their own meanings. The symbolic images in these two pieces are used to express the important issues at that time. In the play, the subway represents the endless cycle of racism that the Black society had to endure. Lula and Clay were in the subway after she had murdered him and then comes here next victim. In Native son, blindness in Mrs. Dalton's eyes is actually blindness is Bigger's eyes. Because of Bigger's fear and hate toward the White community, it prevents him from seeing what opportunities he actually has, such as working with the Dalton's.
Many times we face situations out of our control, which results in us living vicariously through fictional characters.
