ABSTRAK Dalam skripsi ini penulis menelaah unsur-unsur diskriminasi ras yang terdapat didalam novel The Secret Life of Bees, karya Sue Monk Kidd, seorang penulis novel amerika yang terkenal. Fokus analisa saya terutama pada sifat-sifat mulia yang terdapat pada orang kulit hitam amerika yang dianggap sebagai budak dan biadab. Sang pencerita (narrator) berkali-kali mengunggkapkan keheranannya terhadap sifat-sifat mulia orang kulit hitam yang ditemuinya dalam perjalanannya di tubiron south california. Dia kemudian membandingkan sifat-sifat mulia orang ini dengan orang-orang kulit putih amerika yang menganggap diri mereka beradab dan berpendidikan. Dalam penganalisisan ini menggunakan pendekatan intrinstik. Hampir semua kutipan pendukung untuk tesis ini di ambil dari novel yang dibahas. Namun demikian, penulis juga tetap merujuk pada sumber-sumber lain yang berhubungan dengan masalah yang dibahas.
