For within this great text, this issue emerges as being a major focal point. The manuscript tells an ongoing story regarding a people’s weak-minded attempts to grasp a tremendous presence of energy; which constantly endures insults and rejections. There are numerous stories concerning God’s love concerning…

As Abraham had no son, he at first thought that his trusty servant, Eliezer, should become his son by adoption, and his heir. But God informed Abraham that his servant should not be his son and heir, but that he is going to have a son of his own flesh and blood and by faith Abraham believed God and it was counted unto righteousness (15:6). The author of the text, Moses,…

change that fact. Anzaldua’s passage shows just one example of how the writings in Bridge present new ways of looking at oppression by looking deeper into their own biases and prejudices. Canaan agrees with Anzaldua’s idea when she states that “part of [people of color’s] victimization is self-oppression” (Canaan 232).
