Abstract

This work is a research paper about a book by Walter Mosley and his first transition from his famous works off detection and Detective novels. In this book called RL Dreams, I try to bring an objective point of view about the purpose of the book, which is to some extent the life of the legendary Blues singer Robert Johnson in a fictional way of telling his life through the struggle with racism and segregation from the Mississippi to the north. This book is definitely about Blues; however, the main idea may go beyond that. That is what I'm trying to it is straight through this research, as I look through the history of the Blues, the reasons behind it, the history of black people, from Slavery to Freedom, and from all ages to Modern days. In This paper the Journey of the Blues from the fields of slavery to modern pop while relying on the book of Walter Mosley and his description alpha black men living throw his last days with the white woman trying to live her life in a Twisted community. By the end off of this paper, I intend to make the reader understand the history of African Americans through 400 years of change and the impacts a single man can make on Generations after, and how light can exist through the darkness and how evil and righteousness coexist in one's soul. finally that color does not dictator where do you belong and your path in life.
