In my thesis, “The Lesson” written by Toni Cade Bambara opens eyes about how the economic system oppressed African American. I want to talk about how some people are aware of the situation and some don’t seem to understand the issue. In the short story, I want to talk about how one of the kids; Syliva, understood how unjust American is on its own people. Sylvia realizes that there was no equality in the world. On the other hand, the lesson Miss Moore taught went over Mercades head. The type of secondary source I would use for this research paper is “Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome” written by Dr. Joy Degruy. I feel like it will better understand “The Lesson” Toni Cade Bamara was trying open minds about. I know its controversial, but that was what Bambara wanted to do. To write a short to open a debate on the injustice of America. Also understand how undivided African Americans are.
