Abstract

this study aims to analyze how three novels by toni morrison, Beloved, Sula, and The
Bluest Eye, function as transformative tools that critique modern social structures,
especially concerning racial and gender issues. through a qualitative approach and
content analysis method, this research explores the themes of systemic racism, sexism,
and intergenerational inherited trauma faced by black women in the novels. the main
data used is the text of the three novels while supporting data comes from relevant
scholarly journal articles and literature on contemporary social justice movements such
as Black Lives matter. the transformative power of morrison’s novels is evident in their
ability to engage readers in critical discussions about these pressing social issues. the
results of this study underscore that morrison’s works are a poignant critique of social
norms that suppress and limit the freedom of black women, while also vividly portraying
the psychological and social impact of such oppression. these works, in addition to
their critical role, also serve as pedagogical tools in academic discussions, aiding in the
understanding of the intersectionality and dynamics of oppression within the social
and historical context of the united states. the conclusion of this study confirms that
morrison’s work is not only relevant for understanding the contemporary challenges
faced by black women, but also a cornerstone in academic discussions and modern
social justice movements.
