摘要

许多非洲黑人移民到欧洲寻求更好的生活。然而,在这个过程中,他们面临着不同的挑战,比如种族主义、强奸和在欧洲缺乏住宿。因此,本研究旨在考察布吉·埃米切特的《二等公民》如何描绘对更好生活的追求和种族歧视。本研究采用精神分析理论对数据进行分析。研究结果表明,许多非洲人认为欧洲是天堂,是幸福的源泉,是自由和享受的地方,而尼日利亚和整个非洲则是地狱。因此,他们想去西方过更好的生活。此外,调查结果还显示了非洲黑人在那里受到种族歧视的程度。白人认为他们低人一等,不重要,甚至没有人愿意与他们交往。该研究确定了这些发现的一些含义,并为进一步的研究提出了一些建议。

A QUEST FOR A BETTER LIFE AND RACIAL DISCRIMINATION IN BAUCHI EMECHETER’S "SECOND CLASS CITIZEN"
Many black Africans migrate to Europe in search of a better life. However, they face different challenges in the process such as racism, rape, and lack of accommodation in Europe. Thus, this study aims at examining how the quest for a better life and racial discrimination is portrayed in Buchi Emecheter’s Second Class Citizen. The study adopts psychoanalysis theory to analyze the data. The findings of the study show that many Africans consider Europe as heaven, as a source of happiness as a place of freedom and enjoyment while Nigeria and Africa at large as hell. As a result, they want to go and have a better life in the West. Also, the findings show the extent to which Black Africans are racially discriminated against there. They are considered inferior, and unimportant by the whites, and nobody wants to even associate with them. The study identifies some implications of the findings and makes some recommendations for further studies.
