I thought it was an interesting move on the part of Baldwin to speak of the tyranny of the blacks over the whites toward the end of the work. Treated by whites as object-mirrors for white supremacy, through their struggles blacks also have the power to display the cruelty of the whites. He uses this problem as motivation for the whites to reconcile and integrate rather than continue a neurotic attempt to segregate themselves haphazardly.This struck me as a very Westian conjecture and definitely a reformist position, as opposed to the naturalized position of race he was begged to take up after speaking with the Muslims.
