Tom Amca'nın Kulübesi ve Sevilen adlı romanlardaki köleliğin inşası ve yaşanması

White hegemony over blacks is always stressful, if not violent. This is obvious in many media platforms, from movies to written works of art. This is apparent in the news or in social media sites. To hear or to learn about the successful cooperation between blacks and whites is nearly impossible. What is broadcasted has been a violent confrontation of blacks and whites, or police brutality against black suspects or movies with characters of white clever adult male / females and accompanying black adult or teenager male / female characters with teenager or child level of intelligence (for example Bob the Builder). The main event that gave birth to this undeniable fact is American Slavery between 1619 and 1865 with the breaking point being Bacon's Rebellion in 1676. After this, the working class was divided into unbridgeable two parts, free whites and slave blacks. White workers had their time to work and after that were set free; however, the African slaves were put to work to death with very little prospect of being free. Not every free person both in the North and South had this mentality. These people were called abolitionists and one such person is Harriet Beecher Stowe from nineteenth century. She wrote a sentimental novel called Uncle Tom's Cabin (1851) about the sufferings of the African slaves and a possible end to slavery; it should end either peacefully or with war. Long after the Civil War, the sufferings of blacks continued because the ideas that created the slavery did not change. This caused many works of art by Toni Morrison in twentieth century, Beloved (1983) being the most influential of them. This thesis is about the construction of slavery and how it is experienced based on these two works of art looking from different points. After presenting these points, these works will be thoroughly analyzed.
