http://www-mcnair.berkeley.edu/96journal/lott.html
Ownership and the Loss of Communal Ties in Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye Nicole Gelon Lott Faculty Mentor: Professor Barbara Christian I did not want to have anything to own, or possess any object. I wanted to rather feel something Claudia, The Bluest Eye Toni Morrison's novel, The Bluest Eye , focuses on the emphasis African Americans place on commodity culture and its emphasis on white standards of beauty and success. The characters in the novel are consumed by the desire to attain the same level of econmic success as white America. In the novel's time period, 1941, African Americans faced social barriers in their efforts to achieve class status beyond the working class. The social norms American cultures imposed on African Americans contribute to their fragmentation, alienation, and the loss of community, as well as of identity. Given that African Americans were generally confined to lower levels of class status, the importance of attaining a higher level of success was essential. Therefore many African Americans migrated from the south to the north to achieve economic gain. Although the move increased the probability of success, many African Americans began conforming to white standards. The desire to conform to white standards plays a significant role in how African American's view themselves. Morrison exposes the effect consumer culture has on the characters in the novel. The obsession with property and material ownership creates conflict within the novel's urban African American community. The novel illustrates how ownership begins to replace the sacredness of the community's ties. Communal ties are lost due to the competitive nature affiliated with consumer culture. African Americans begin a pattern of self hatred because they compare themselves unfavorably with white standards of living. Morrison presents the difficulty of maintaining cultural values in an environment where white images of beauty and success are instilled as early as childhood. African Americans internalize the images of beauty and success they receive, and the notion that being white is more prestigious.
