Black Boy Chapter 16

In this chapter Wright speaks out against the election of this time. He takes a ballet and writes 'I protest this fraud' in big capital letters. Richard is in the communist party now. He's also in a club of writers and painters. Richard follows the group's decisions on everything and this is why he wrote that stuff on the ballet. I think the reason that Wright is in the group is to find a place to fit in. Many people of this time period joined social movements for the same reason. Wright wrote that on the ballet in order to go along with his group and I completely understand that. Like I said, I understand why he did it but at the same time that's not really something I though Wright would do. It bothered him when he had to conform and go along with the horrible jobs but he's willing to do this.
