ABSTRACT
Black Power is an improvement in Wright's transnational vision. At the same time, The Color Curtain, which is the main focus of this chapter, is no less significant than Black Power in its review of racism and colonialism and in Wright's advancement toward humanist, global, and transactional doctrines in working with nations of different racial and cultural backgrounds. Transnational connections made Wright aware of other ethnic groups' social marginalization and accounts of injustice. For this reason, the third-world community created connections to these other ethnic groups in the pursuit of transnational, multiethnic interpersonal justice. Wright follows several critics in the field who have pointed to the way transnationalism describes ideals more than current practices transnational community production and building in Richard Wright's The Color Curtain make a contribution to ongoing arguments within the fields of postcolonial literature and globalization studies by evaluating the political changes believed fundamental to literary writing produced since the American centennial.
