Race and Racism
In a story that Troy
tells in the play, the devil is represented as a white business owner who takes
advantage of his black customers. The setting for Fences is just before
the racial tensions of the 1960s erupt. Troy
is a garbage man. He has noticed that only white men are promoted to driver,
and, although he possesses no driver’s license, Troy complains about the injustice of a
system that favors one race while excluding another. Because he has complained,
Troy is
promoted, but the result is that he no longer works with his friends and the
camaraderie of the workplace is lost. Troy
also feels that his dream to play professional baseball was destroyed because
he was a black player in a white world. Because he has spent a lifetime being
excluded, Troy
cannot see any advantage for his son when college recruiters come to watch Cory
play football. Troy
cannot trust the white man, the devil, and so, he forbids his son to play
football.
