Abstract

Racism in all forms remains a significant cause of humiliation, differentiation, and unfairness for millions of people around the globe. Debbie Tucker Green (1964) is a well-known black British playwright of the new millennium. She does not focus on the concept of race and its interpretations in her plays but on the challenges black individuals face in many countries such as the UK, Africa, and the Caribbean. The play Random (2008) presents a black adolescent assassinated in London; for the most part, the writer Tucker Green focuses on showing how the problem of indiscriminate killing of black people impacts each character's life. Instead of focusing on the causes of the problem, she focuses on the emotional consequences. The play also examines this topic by concentrating on the character's thoughts and inner voices. This paper analyses Green's play in two terms, content and style, to present Tucker Green's depiction of trauma, loss, and vehemence.
