No matter what they do, they always suffer from discrimination。 discrimination and oppression。 especially the black women need do so. In Beloved, Sethe has to kill her daughter, and undoubtedly that’s a big tragedy. Besides, Beloved herself is a tragedy too. She es to this world at a wrong time, and is killed by her mother. When she es back, she is treated as an evil. At the end of the Beloved, Morrison 攀枝花學院本科畢業(yè)論文 Body 3 writes: Everybody knew what she was called, but nobody anywhere knew her name. Disremembered and unaccounted for, she cannot be lost because no one is looking for her, and even if they were, how can they call her if they know her name? Although she has claim, she id not claimed. In the place where long grass opens, the girl who waited to be loved and cry shame erupts into her separate parts, to make it easy for the chewing laughter to swallow her all away. (Morrison 274) Although the daughter’s name is Beloved, she never gets love. Nobody loves her, she is just considered a ghost, and everybody expels her. In fact, the black women are born to be looked down upon. They are looked down upon by the white people, and even by some black male. So actually, they are the most tragic people in the world. They always have to bear the pains and sufferings both from race and sex discrimination which is heavily imposed on them. The black women are looked down upon for the color of their skin all the time. Although the American Constitution says that everyone is equal in the society. But in reality, colored people, especially the black women, never have equal rights and respect. They usually stay at the bottom of the society. In American society, generally, people hold the idea that only the white people are in the main stream. They would like to divide Americans into several classes. Of course the white people are the first class people, and they are the center of the social life. There are no blacks or other colored people who can be the president, or even the leading officers. For the white people, they believe they are, undoubtedly, superior to the black people。 all of them are the private property of the slave owner, and like the tools of workers, they are treated equal to the livestock. Baby Suggs hates the Whites very much and she hopes there is a clear place left for her. But when the Whites break into the yard, she can do nothing, but just accept it, pondering color and waiting for death. Before she has been ransomed, she has no ideas about herself. After she 攀枝花學院本科畢業(yè)論文 Body 6 gets freedom, she realizes that if the Blacks want to get liberty, they should know their own value, and learn to love themselves. So, in the woods, she appeals her patriots for loving themselves: Love your hands! Love them. Raise them up and kiss them. Touch others with them, pat them together, stroke them on yours face’ cause they don’t love that either. You got to love it, you! And all your inside parts that they’d just as soon slop for hogs, you got to love them. The dark, dark—love it, love it, and the beat and beating heart, love that too. More than eyes or feet. More than lungs that have yet to draw free air. More than your lifeholding womb and your lifegiving private parts, hear me now, love your heart. For this is the prize. (Morrison 89) Obviously, loving themselves is the first step that the black begin to find their own identity and grow up. In fact, the black women are never yield to the outside.

It confirms her renown and makes her one of the most influential writers in America history. From The Bluest Eye to Love, each of her fictions has exerted vibrating influence upon the literary world. In the fictions of Toni Morrison, there is a distinct and eternal theme which can be felt and touched clearly: the tragic life of the black people and the conflict between the white culture and the black culture. Beloved, a famous fiction by Toni Morrison in 1987 which wins the 1988 Pulitzer Prize, best exemplifies the theme and her thoughts about the blacks, especially the black women. The story of Beloved es from a true event: In 1850, Margaret Garner, a Kentucky fugitive slave woman, would rather choose death for herself and her children than being returned to slavery. But she only killed one and the rest were recaptured and sold (Zhu 144). When Toni Morrison heard this story, she was deeply moved and decided to write down it. After 10 years of gestating and 3 years of writing, she finally finished this great work. Once it was published, it shook the whole American literary circle and cultural circle, and was considered a milestone in the history of AfroAmericans. People always think that the black women are coquettish, crude, strong and humble, and they can bear more pressure than the white women. However, Morrison argues that they are wrong. Through her fictions Morrison reveals that the black women have the same emotion just as other people do. Morrison is always proud of her black status. In fact, the black women contribute a lot to America, and even to the whole wo
