Discussion/Analysis Prompt
Having read Invisible Man, what do you think of Ellison’s choice to leave the protagonist unnamed?
Teaching Suggestion: Encourage students to think about invisibility and what it means to really “see” others and “race.” Consider asking students to make references or connections to one or more of the paired resources or current or historical events.
Differentiation Suggestion: For English language learners, consider having students make connections by creating a list of terms they associate with invisibility on one part of a Venn diagram, including words they associate with race on the other, with the overlapping section demonstrating what it might mean to think about these terms together.
