ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“The Sellout” by Paul Beatty is a darkly comedic, satirical novel that explores race, identity, and systemic inequality in America. The protagonist, known only as "Me," is put on trial for attempting to reinstate segregation in his hometown of Dickens, a fictional neighborhood in Los Angeles. Through absurd social experiments and radical actions, Me challenges the status quo and critiques societal responses to racial issues, including gentrification, media stereotypes, and the failure of well-meaning reforms. The novel uses humor and absurdity to explore serious themes of cultural identity, historical trauma, and the complexities of race in modern America.
