Dual Identity: African and American in the Early Twentieth Century

Abstract: 6 pages. A critical analysis of the African American plight in the early twentieth century shows us of the duality of consciousness in which these people strove to make as one. While trying to identify as Americans on the one hand, on the other hand they encountered the haunting fact that to be black is to be denied full access to American identity. The American ideologies did not apply to these dual-identitied people and as such one might find that this has oftentimes proven to be the case even today. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
