Ralph Waldo Ellison “Battle Royal”
The chapter given of this book was almost unlike anything I have ever read before. The narrator is thrown in a boxing ring before he can give his speech. This seems really degrading, but at the end of the chapter he does not feel ashamed at all. I find it interesting that he dreams about the grandfather that night because before going to be he doesn't feel ashamed anymore.
