The antagonist in the play "The Hairy Ape" can be seen as the social class divide and the dehumanizing effects of industrialization. These forces oppose and challenge Yank throughout the play, leading to his eventual downfall.

Could the time traveler then have visited a zoo, where he mistakenly materialises in the in ape enclo Earliar yank was obsessed with the feeling that he 'belongs' to stokhole ,he runs the whole ship..one day when Mildred Douglas who appears in white symbolies the aristrocacy,her reaction on Yank and called him a 'filthy beast' ..,destroies yank's sence of belongingness..he decieds to kill mildred and her gang ..he goes to fifth avenue bt he finds nothing but he been put to prison,where he thinks that he is a hairy ape..but other companions clears out that he is a human not a hairy ape..here in the prison he learns about I.W.W (Industrial works of the world) he wents there..but they asumes that Yank is against the capitalist so they threw him out from there too..there a police man asks him to move out from the road and he said to Yank is to 'go to hell'..yank then finds a zoo where he calls a gorilla his 'brother' he sees the gorilla behind the steel that remainds him about the stokehole where he thought he belongs but he was nothng but a worker he tries to free the gorilla.Yank thinks that the gorilla is a alter ego of Yank but the gorilla crushes Yank and throws him to the cage.It signifies that the gorilla as a high class people who always crushes down the low class people and Yank's death signifies the everyman of modern age.
