Abstract
Deploying indices found in eco criticism, particularly the fact that “human acts occur within a network of relationships, processes, and system that are as ecological as they are cultural,” the paper examines how a black female South African human agency in Beverly Naidoo’s Playgrounds migrates the socio-economic ladder, crosses rejection imposed by racial walls, and fosters affinity amidst diversity, through the application of natural endowment, aggregated values, and unbeatable spirit. The paper argues that in addition to the overarching policies of government, individuals, as self constituents, are required to use their skills and endowment to break walls and build connectivity and affinity in diversity.
