racism

Edit: I disagree that that's really even a theme of the story, and even if it is, there are far more and more prominent ones in Battle Royal.

1. The theme of Identity and Purpose, both as a race for the black race and as a personal journey of discovery.

2. The Cruelty of Man - Not just to black men but to the white girl as well. Basically anyone they view an not equals or as objects.

3. The Power/Corruption of Money - The way the boys willingly electrocute themselves in order to get money. The way the rich white men treat others as objects who are not of their station.

4. Social Equality - The way that the south views blacks and others (like the exotic dancer) not of their station.

Why did Ralph Ellison use blindness as a theme in his novel 'Invisible Man'?

Ralph Ellison used blindness as a theme because he wanted to show that people do not want to see certain things, that they have the control to choose if they want to acknowledge him or not; by acknowledging Invisible Man they are giving him an identity. I think that Ralph also used the theme to show that both black and white people refuse to see him and not only white.

Why does Ellison makes numerous references to the circus List some of those references and speculate as to why he continually returned to this metaphor?

Ellison uses the circus as a metaphor to depict the absurdity and exploitation of race relations in America. By likening the protagonist's experiences to a circus, he highlights the spectacle and dehumanization that black people faced in society. Some references include the battle royal scene where the narrator is made to fight blindfolded, symbolizing his lack of agency and control. The circus theme recurs to underscore the performative nature of race relations and how African Americans were made to entertain and amuse white audiences.
