| dc.description.abstract | This study makes an attempt to explore the racial injustice upon black characters inThe Secret Life of Beesby applying theory of justice perspective.The Civil Rights Act of 1964, protected the rights of African-Americans to enter public places, enrolls in schools, and avoids injustice from the white community. Although the Civil Rights Act strengthened the black community and protected them from many of the worst kinds of racism in America, it provoked a fierce and often bloodthirsty backlash.Sue Monk Kidd eludes passingof the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and African- American characters in order to show how privileged White characters oppressed and dominated them and how African-Americans collective resistance and capability challenge the white supremacy.To examine, analyse and interpret the racial injustice eyes the theoretical insights primarily from theory of justice texts asJohn Rawl’sA Theory ofJustice,Iris Young’sJustice and the Politics of Difference, Nancy Fraser and AxelHonneth’sRedistribution or Recognition? A Political–Philosophical Exchangeand Amartya Sen’sInequality Reexaminedhave been taken as theoretical parameters. The researcher argues that unfair distribution, disrespect and misrecognition, lack of participatory parity in policy and decision making bodies and no incentives and opportunities for functioning the capabilities in Kidd’sThe Secret Life of Beesmake them be entrapped in racial justice .
