| Abstract |
This study aimed to analyze the representation of racism in the American novel The Help written
by Kathryn Stockett. The Help was published in 2009. It depicts storytelling by two black maids who
served white families living in Jackson, Mississippi during the 1960s. Throughout the novel, Stockett
portrays relationships between the white and the black characters and shows how the black maids are
treated by their white employers. The main purpose of this study was to identify out the types of racism
that appear in the novel and how each type is portrayed. Carmichael and Hamilton’s 1967 framework
on types of racism was adopted for the analysis. It was found that individual racism and institutional
racism are portrayed most frequently in the novel. |
