divided we stand

went to the bookstore today to get ellison's invisible man. pretty good book so far (besides the prolouge). so i went to the literature section of the bookstore and was unable to find either the book or anything else by him. which was odd... so i went to the comp and looked him up. guess wat section he's in? 'african american literature' ...that's kind of ironic. many of the authors in this category wrote about prejudice, discrimination and segregation. and yet they are once again segregated. maybe tho, some would want this? to be highlighted, so that the customer may more easily see and be left to ponder on their experiences? but really. i would think that most would object to their seperation. wat is it really for anyway?
