isfied with their own situation in the society. In fact, they are still influenced and controlled by the whites, but fortunately, the black women now have more and more chances to show their values and strength. They are not just tools to give birth to babies or just do the housework, or the farm work. They now have chances to stand on an upper stage to prove that they are as capable as others. The black women are more and more self-confident, and they began to believe in their own strength and beauty. Thus, people can always see beautiful black women walking on the T-stage or joining some competitions. They even join the political stage and do an excellent work. However, they do not and will not stop their resistance if there is still unequal treatment or discrimination. It is safe to say that the revolution of the black women is like a “glass ceiling”. They can see their prospect clearly but they still have a long-time fight and need to make great efforts. Fortunately, they gradually grow up and build very strong strength to make themselves accepted by others. In fact, the black women have great strength and are full of hope, and they are following the way of Baby Suggs, Sethe, and Denver, and making their future more wonderful. When Martin Luther King Jr. said that he had a dream that his children would not be judged by the color of their skin but the content of their character, it was understood that equal rights for African-Americans would be good for all Americans. Likewise, when the black women have equal rights with others and when laws support the practice of that equality, people will live in a better America, and also in a better world. That is, undoubtedly, the reason why Toni Morrison deliberately demonstrates the tragedy and growth of the black women through the story of Beloved. Bibliography [1] Fanon, Frantz.
