Aggression and Anguish 

This chapter shows the aggression of the main character on the situation back then on racial conflict. The racial conflict was that many African Americans are not offered as many jobs as Caucasians. As Bigger begins to realize the situation he has a clearer view on why and how he was to be put in a poor habitat.
