The Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man. Illustrated
James Weldon Johnson
The Autobiography of an Ex-Coloured Man by James Weldon Johnson is a groundbreaking work of American literature that explores the complexities of race, identity, and social class in early 20th-century America. Written in the form of a fictional autobiography, the novel follows the life of an unnamed biracial narrator who navigates the challenges of being "ex-coloured" — a man who chooses to live as white in a racially segregated society. Through vivid storytelling, Johnson examines themes such as the impact of systemic racism, the loss of cultural heritage, and the moral dilemmas faced by individuals who must reconcile personal ambition with societal expectations. The narrator's journey from the South to the North, and eventually to Europe, provides a nuanced portrait of both the privileges and sacrifices tied to racial passing. This pioneering novel offers a profound critique of the racial dynamics in America and remains a significant text in discussions about race and identity.
