Plunging into the flow of a white dominated social and hierarchical culture, the nameless protagonist of Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man struggles to find a purpose for his life. The desire to be as prominent and powerful as affluent white men drives him to endure hate crimes and the belittlement of his race, all in a desperate search for identity. This struggle, the Invisible Man’s wrenching internal conflict between conforming to society that hates him or choosing to develop his own identity as a human being, aptly illustrates Ralph Ellison’s argument that the ultimate human struggle is to find the self.
