W. E. B. Dubois Theory Double Consciousness

“ Only lets him see himself through the revelation of the other world” W.E.B Du Bois theory double consciousness and how it contains all Africans is unique, advanced, and bitter. Native son by Richard Wright is a remarkable story about Bigger Thomas, who is a black male living in poverty during the great depression who is pushed into doing things he doesn't want to. Bois theory is relatable to bigger's character because it proves that bigger has a double consciousness of the world. I say this because of the murders bigger has committed, the fears he has faced, and suicide though he had received.
