through the main character, Celie. Through her lesbian relationship in The Color
Purple, I want to reveal what the meanings of her lesbian relationship are. Then,
to analyze the meanings of her lesbian relationship, I use the theory of slavery
resistance and black feminism theory. After that, by analyzing this novel, I find
out that somehow lesbian relationship is not only about the sexual orientation
between women especially in the context of black lesbian relationship. By finding
out the meanings of her lesbian relationship, I finally find out that she uses her
lesbian relationship as a means of resistance, as a tool to know her sexuality and
body, and the last, she uses her lesbian relationship as an implementation to see
herself as worthy being. At last, I can conclude that lesbian relationship in the
context of black lesbian relationship has several meanings for the women who get
involved in it instead of just a sexual orientation between women.
