- Abstract
The heroine in The bluest Eye was a black girl living in the economic recession time. She was deeply influenced by the culture values admired by mainstream in American society, which is that white represents beautiful. This criterion of beauty has tortured her mental and physical health. Lack of the resistance consciousness, the discrimination between the black people and the discrimination by white grant her to unfortunate life.
