Description
Harris and Chesnutt
On a very superficial level, the stories of Joel Chandler Harris are similar to those of Charles W. Chesnutt, especially in how they both use local dialect to develop their realism. However, Chesnutt is an African American and Harris is not. While from the very beginning of his career, race was an important issue for Chesnutt; however, it wasn't until later in Chesnutt's career that his reader discovered his racial identity. Please write a paragraph explaining why you think Chesnutt's racial identity should have been clear from the very beginning. In other words, how is Chesnutt clearly an African America writer of realism.
