America has a long history of violence towards people of other races in general and Black people in particular, with origins that go all the way back to the colonial era. The relationship between Whites and Blacks in this racist culture of America was based on two tenets: White hegemony and Black subordination. Because of this, Black people fought for freedom throughout history in all spheres. This has compelled black writers to modify their styles in order to defend black causes and preserve their ancestors' identity. Among these writers is Buchi Emecheta. The aim of this study is to shed light on how racism affected the black community, how it led to a chasm between black men and women that is known as Sexism, and how Buchi Emecheta, a black woman, replied through Womanism. Additionally, this study clarified how the ideologies of Womanism and feminism differ from one another. The study then used this womanist perspective to The Joys of Motherhood, one of Emecheta's greatest books, tracking the development of Emecheta's female protagonists toward self-recognition.
