The revolutionary spirit is a natural state with which one revolts. It struggles to come up with its existence. It is not apparent in adverse conditions, but it reveals itself when a human being becomes aware of its very existence. In the autobiographical novel Black Boy, the protagonist serves as a representative of African Americans who possess a revolutionary spirit. As a child, the protagonist wonders about the discriminatory ways of racism. He prefers freedom with challenges to submissiveness with no challenges.

Hypothesis: Richard's thoughts, speech, and actions are revolutionary.
Methodology: The researcher has studied Richard Wright's biographical novel Black Boy. He has also studied Wright's biography, Richard Wright: The Life and Times, written by Hazel Rowley.
