Focusing on themes of racial identity and the complexities of Southern society, the narrative delves into the harsh realities of lynchings and segregation in the post-Civil War South. Through rich storytelling, Chesnutt critiques the hypocrisy of American values while highlighting the deep-seated obsession with race.
