Abstract (EN)

In this study, the examination and evaluation of two plays that shed light on and set an example for English literature were determined and the two plays were examined and analyzed in accordance with the tenets of Critical Race Theory. These plays are The Westbridge (2011) by the British playwright Rachel Delahay and random (2008) by the British playwright debbie tucker green. Both plays were examined in terms of tenets of Critical Race Theory, and the way the theory was handled and its effects in both works were discussed in detail. In addition, in this study, the features of Critical Race Theory in both contemporary English and American literature were investigated and examined in line with the views and thoughts of leading theorists. In this study, the subtitles of the theory were examined in line with the works of activist, writers and academics who specialize in race and racism, and their similar and different opinions were expressed. Topics covered in this study are social prejudices, cultural conflicts, pejorative discourses, black-white conflict, the efforts of minorities to adapt to society, white supremacy, socially constructed norms and race matters.
