Abstract
Blacks were subjected to multiple oppressions by Imperialistic powers. As a result of this exploitation, they kept away from their culture and traditions. Culture of community plays a vital role in survival of human being. Blacks were subjected to white standards, traditions and hegemonic culture which are alien to them and as a result had devastating effect on their survival. This paper is concerned with the exploration of cultural conflicts in Tar Baby (1981) by Toni Morrison. It examines role of their cultural heritage and traditions in black women’s development in the American society. Tar Baby is studied as the basis for this analysis, because it depicts the cultural differences and their effect on the development of the black people in different forms, especially on women’s life.
