Native Son was confusing.

Why did Bigger and his friend jerk off in that theater together?

Why did he kill the communist girl that was nice to him?

Why did he rape that black girl that was nice to him?

it doesn't matter, this thread is going to be all people making 'dindu nuffin' jokes and inferring shit about the book without reading it just because it's about black people. this board is worthless for discussion of any literature but most of all black literature.

Black literature is itself worthless in that it's too focused on being black rather than being literature.

>Why did Bigger and his friend jerk off in that theater together?
Because they were turned on.

>Why did he kill the communist girl that was nice to him?
It was an accident, he was trying to muffle her voice but he pushed too hard on the pillow.

>Why did he rape that black girl that was nice to him?
Because being treated as a criminal pushed him towards actual criminal behavior.

It's a naturalist novel — everything Bigger does, he does because of the influence of his environment. The same is true of every other character.
