Is Toni Morrison's writing as politically progressive as is widely
assumed? In this eye-opening study, critic William Jefferson argues
that it is not. Analyzing Morrison's major texts from the 1970s,
'80s, and '90s, Jefferson argues that Morrison's writing has
advanced problematic conceptions of racial essentialism, sexuality,
and agency that would not be identified as in any way progressive
if issued from the pen of a white writer. More than merely showing
readers underappreciated aspects of African-American history,
Morrison's fiction has actively intervened in the politics of her
era--and in ways politically reactionary and disturbing. Stepping
back from Morrison's fiction, Jefferson asks why scholars have not
recognized these political aspects of Morrison's writing. What he
finds is a purportedly left-wing academy focused predominantly on
recognizing the indisputably black aspects of Morrison's work. This
"politics of recognition," unfortunately, also naturalizes
Morrison's representations in the same manner liberal humanist
criticism naturalized the representations of the pre-1970 literary
canon.
As an only child of a devout Christian couple, Kelly is raised
to become the kind of daughter any parent would be proud of. Every
choice she makes is grounded on the values and lessons her parents

successful business both fail. She decides to take her chance in
