The Crucible of Race [French]

By Léonidas Ndereyimana

This work aims at examing the cruelties undergone by slaves in the American plantations during slavery period. It further wants to tackle the issues of race, Black location, and self-definition of the enslaved man in America. This work therefore harbours on the hypothetical contention that location defines better man in a multiracial context. It further proves that the southern plantations served as experimental grounds for wars between races. Written against the backdrop of Historical-Biographical and New Historicism approaches, this work concludes that racism, the greed for power and economic interests ignited the oppression of Blacks in the American plantations. Because of this, the humuliated people stood up with much determination to denounce, assert and locate themselves within the same society which had pushed them to the margins for centuries.
