Civil Rights Movement - Ralph Ellison

Ralph Ellison was a writer who wrote about different themes of race through the Civil Rights Movement. One of his most timeless books is Invisible Man.



The Invisible Man explores in depth issues that African Americans have repeatedly experienced in their search for dignity and equality in the United States. This pushes right to the heart of the Civil Rights Movement in that the movement aims to break down those problems. It seeks to make dignity and equality not only attainable, but also inherent for people of every race.
