This study examines the devastating effects of American exceptionalism of the European settlers in American colonies on a community of displaced people in Toni Morrison’s A Mercy. In A Mercy, Morrison, in relation to American exceptionalism, explores the history of a heterogenous, multi-ethnic community in the seventeenth century, the period before the time of the American nation. It was the chaotic era of American origins when slavery was not yet institutionalized and thus racism was not connected to slavery. Under the exceptionalist myth of the chosen and the others, good and evil, the community of others, once dependent on each other with familial ties, ended up in split and disruption while racism joined slavery as a result of the ideology of separation.
