Research Scholar of English
The paper examines the theme of racial discrimination in Zadie Smith's novel White Teeth. The novel portrays the diverse lives of characters in London, particularly focusing on the cultural clashes and identity struggles of immigrants and their descendants from Jamaica, Bangladesh, and other backgrounds. Through a close analysis of key characters and narrative incidents, the study explores how racial discrimination manifests in various forms such as societal prejudice, systemic inequalities, and individual biases. It examines how the characters navigate and respond to these challenges, shedding light on broader issues of multiculturalism, identity formation, and the impact of historical legacies on contemporary social dynamics. By examining Smith's nuanced portrayal of racial discrimination, the paper aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of race relations and cultural diversity in modern urban societies.
