## Na Tuskegee Institute
Ellison tinyere akwụkwọ ugboro abụọ maka ịbanye na Tuskegee Institute, ụlọ akwụkwọ mahadum a ma ama na Alabama nke Booker T.

Ọnọdụ Ellison si n'èzí na Tuskegee "mechara oghere satirical ya," onye nkatọ Hilton Als kwenyere: "Ịkwụsị na ikuku nke mahadum nke Negritude dị nsọ nyere ya aka ide banyere ya."  N'akụkụ Akwụkwọ Nsọ nke Mmadụ Na-adịghị ahụ anya, "ọ na-eleghachi anya azụ na nlelị na obi nkoropụ na ethos sniveling nke chịrị na Tuskegee."

Ngalaba egwu nke Tuskegee bụ ma eleghị anya ngalaba a ma ama n'ụlọ akwụkwọ ahụ,  nke onye na-ede egwu bụ William L. Dawson duziri. Onye nkuzi piano nke ngalaba ahụ, Hazel Harrison duziri Ellison. Mgbe ọ na-amụ egwu karịsịa na klas ya, ọ na-eji oge ezumike ya n'ọbá akwụkwọ na ndị oge ochie nke oge a. O kwuru na ịgụ akwụkwọ T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land dị ka oge dị mkpa.

Onye na-elekọta ọ́bá akwụkwọ Walter Bowie Williams ji ịnụ ọkụ n'obi hapụ Ellison ka ọ kesaa ihe ọmụma ya.

Mmetụta dị ukwuu n'ahụ Ellison bụ onye nkuzi Bekee Morteza Drexel Sprague, onye Ellison mechara raara mkpokọta edemede ya Shadow and Act.  O meghere anya Ellison na "ikike nke akwụkwọ dị ka nka dị ndụ" na "ịma mma ọ ga-ejikọta ya na ndụ akwụkwọ."Site na Sprague, Ellison maara nke ọma Mpụ na ntaramahụhụ Fyodor Dostoevsky na Thomas Hardy's Jude the Obscure, na-ejikọta ya na "ndị dike na-egbuke egbuke, na-ata ahụhụ" nke ọrụ ndị ahụ.

Dị ka nwatakịrị, Ellison gosipụtara ihe ga-aghọ mmasị ndụ ya niile na teknụzụ ọdịyo, malite site na ịhapụ na iwughachi redio, ma mesịa gaa n'ihu na-ewu ma na-ahazi usoro stereo hi-fi dị iche iche dị ka okenye.

Mgbe Ellison dere akwụkwọ nyocha maka Wright, Wright gbara ya ume ide akụkọ ifo dị ka ọrụ. Akụkọ mbụ o bipụtara bụ "Hymie's Bull", nke sitere n'ike mmụọ nsọ nke Ellison na nwanne nna ya na-agagharị n'ụgbọ okporo ígwè n'afọ 1933 iji gaa Tuskegee.
