Szukana fraza: [Abstract = "Accordingly, Bride`s constructivist shifting from ugliness to beauty helps her assert her femininity and refuse the image of Blacks` inferiority too. Thus, she demonstrates that colorism has nothing to do with African American women`s femininity because they concretely testify to Simone de Beauvoir`s idea that women are not born women but they rather become women. So, in her novel Morrison deconstructs the racial bias and posits blackness as a positive racial trait."]
