This study discusses Toni Morrison's multi-racial and multi-cultural concepts in Tar Baby and Paradise. In these novels, Morrison argues that Black society has copied the whites' exclusive racism. And she shows that the copied society doesn't share other races' identities and consciousness with its racial community and myth because it is melted into the whites' weaknesses, such as racism and cultural superiority. However, her criticism comes from her multi-racial and multi-cultural perspectives. She doesn’t want an exclusive boundary between races or peoples. She puts their critical focus on the dangers of the excessive commemoration of racial boundary because its exclusive racism tends to ignore all others as being inferior. Regardless of racial backgrounds, her racial perspectives show that all races have their unique identities, and should be in the equilibrium of multi-racial and multi-cultural subjectivities.
