Comparison of the Native Son and Mocking Bird novelsINTRODUCTIONThe two novels have many similarities and differences.

However, Wright expresses his anti-racism stance more directly than Harper. Racism is a controversial issue in society and people need to address it. Many people have written books warning societies against practicing this vice. Discrimination of people based on race or skin color is prevalent in many societies. The two writers used their novels to warn people against accepting it because it propagates violence. Racism is a vice that people must collectively address.

Discriminating against people based on skin color is a normal thing in communities. The writers reveal to the audience how Black men could not access justice because of their race (Wright, 2010, p. 3).
