RESUME,
This work examines the abuse of human rights in Toni Morrison's The bluest Eye.It attempts to reveal human rights abuse that African -Americans many instances showing to that extent colour and gender are the main sources of the ill-treatment of African-Americans in the united states of America.Even though black men suffered in the hands of the white man,black women were facing a double war:first because they are black,second because they are females.Moreover,through her first novel,The Bluest Eye,Morrison has a special message for her fellow African-Americans ,especially women.Since Morrison is one of them and experienced the same bad living conditions as they do,she then tries to show them different ways through which they could come out of their human rights abuse in all its forms.This study is guided by historical,marxism and psychological approaches.
