Black Like Me

The novel is about a writer named John Howard Griffin who decides to study how a black man lives in the late 1950's. Mr. Griffin's main purpose for writing this book was to show inconsiderate and immature white people were in the past. It also revealed how horrible black people were treated. (5)

This novel is probably directed to young adults. It is directed to this audience due to the mature subject but also conveys the message of how wrong racism is. I also recommend this to adults also because I think that they could learn things from it also. (1)

One theme from the novel is racism. It is not universally accepted because it is so immature and stupid. The author's main reason for writing this story was to tell the story of racism. Another theme from the story is linked with racism but is not the same, is civil rights. This has been a huge topic during the last century and still exists now. He tries to tell the reader that this is important and should be important in ones life through the theme. The other theme is perseverance. The author expresses this by writing this book. It is showed by the perseverance Mr. Howard has by going after the topic and by how he lived when he was a black man. He had to persevere by putting u


The style is colloquial because they use diction that is used in the setting and the slang the blacks use. I think that the author is very descriptive. He describes everything from the sound and smell to what the boys across the street is doing. (5)

The characters are hugely related to the theme because they become part of the theme. Mr. Howard shows a couple of themes and is parts of a lot of them. An example is his perseverance. (3)

I think that the story accomplishes a lot. This was a big book that described the struggles in the mid 1900's. It doesn't raise many question only answers. It tells how we can help the situation of racism and how stupid it is to discriminate someone. This story is great and I think that I would recommend it to anyone. (3)
