Character analysis of Ras the Exhorter: One of the most memorable characters in the novel, Ras the Exhorter (later called Ras the Destroyer) is a powerful figure who seems to embody Ellison’s fears for the future of the civil rights battle in America.These allusions capture the essence of the character: as a passionate black nationalist, Ras is obsessed with the idea of race.

The narrator introduces himself right off the bat as an invisible man. He lives off the grid, in a warm hole in the ground where he is hibernating in anticipation of future direct, visible action. But before all this direct, visible action happens, he needs to detail his road to recognizing his invisibility.
