Episode Eleven: Part II of Righteous and Justified Anger as Seen in Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man

In this episode, Pete discusses Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man, building on the ideas of righteous, historical, and justified anger felt by African-Americans over their oppression throughout American history. The book’s opening scene, the infamous “battle royal chapter” is the focus of the episode, as it is highly allegorical in symbolizing so many parts of the African-American male experience.
