The color purple is a woman’s story about pain, suffering, endurance, and friendship, a story of hardship and hope, of reunion and reconciliation. Walker depicts how the black women have been oppressed due to their relationship with black men and only the sisterhood that can make the black women free and empowered. The Color Purple is more concerned with politics of sex and self than with the politics of class and race, its unrelenting, and severe attacks on male hegemony, especially the violent abuse of black women by black men, is offered as a revolutionary leap forward into a new social areder based on sexual egalitarianism. The novel ends with happiness and reconciliation. Walker emphasizes the universal oppression of black women in The Color Purple. According to Walker, a womanist is a black feminist or feminist of color..with outrageous, audacious, courageous or willful behavior. A woman who loves other women, sexually and or nonsexually.
