    The three-time U.S. track and field Olympian, Gail Devers once stated, “Sometimes we fall, sometimes we stumble, but we can’t stay down. We can’t allow life to beat us down. Everything happens for a reason, and it builds character in us, and it tells us what we are about and how strong we really are when we didn’t think we could be that strong.” In the nonfiction book Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand, the courageous Louis Zamperini emulated with Devers words when, even in times of hopelessness and doubt, he survived a World War II bomber plane crash into the great Pacific, where he was left and considered dead for 47 days.

    At the tender age of seven years, Charles W. Chesnutt’s milieu was a tumultuous and political battlefield. The Emancipation Proclamation and 13th Amendments had both just been sanctioned, changing his and his family’s foreseeable future. Establishing his roots during this period of racial revolution with his fluid identity can easily be what influenced him to write a commentary on “racial passing,” such as The House Behind the Cedars. Racial passing, as defined by Randall Kennedy, an Ohio State Law journalist, is “a deception that enables a person to adopt certain roles or identities from which he would be barred by prevailing social standards in the absence of his misleading conduct.” Like his main characters Rena and John, Chesnutt grew up in an environment where he could pass as either black or white.…
