The Notion of Black Womanhood in the Creative Work of Alice Walker

Abstrak

The position of black women in the history was always influenced by the society. Their social status has been harmed since the times of slavery and the way of recovery has not been easy. Even though the two novels analyzed in the practical part pictured the position of black women in different time periods, the same things were observed – black women are influenced by their background which usually binds them and their journeys of finding a freedom are full of obstacles. Nevertheless, once these women take enough courage to fight for their rights they can find the long-desired freedom.
