This article investigates the notions of colonial racism and identity in Chinua Achebe’s
Things Fall Apart and Arrow of God. To reach this goal, two important aspects are analyzed:
first, the colonizers’ oppressive strategies and attitudes; second, the native Africans’ reaction
towards change. The paper will explore these issues by applying Frantz Fanon’s and Abdul Jan
Mohamed’s ideas on the nature of colonialism and racism. - Downloads
