dc.description.abstractThis dissertation critically examines Ama Ata Aidoo's novel Our Sister Killjoy (1977) through the lens of Chela Sandoval’s Methodology of the Oppressed. The focus is on understanding how the protagonist, Sissie, navigates and resists various oppressive structures. By closely reading Our Sister Killjoy (1977), the thesis explores Sandoval’s methodology, including oppositional consciousness, forms of resistance (Equal-rights and Revolutionary), and differential consciousness as tools for personal and societal transformation. The analysis delves into the intersectionality of gender, race, and colonialism within Sandoval’s framework, impacting Sissie’s experiences. This study contributes to understanding the interplay of postcolonial theory, emphasizing the relevance of Sandoval’s Methodology of the Oppressed. The thesis provides insights into transformative change and emancipation through strategic resistance within oppressed communities.
