Another form of oppression that was rampant throughout Half of a Yellow Sun‚ Half the Sky‚ and The Woman Warrior was the issue of classism.

Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn (2010) noted that out of the two to three million

Half-cast and island man In the half-cast poem by John starts he starts apologizing to the reader for being half-cast‚ which is very ironic because what he is trying to explain in his poem is how angry and frustrated with the term half-cast.
