Holding on Creswells statement, the researcher gathered the information with the concept of racial prejudice and its construction based on the post
colonialism theory from Fanon as illustrated in the analytical construction presented in the chart at the end of chapter II. In addition, the researcher also
used the data sheet to arrange the data systematically.
E. The Data Trustworthiness
To prove the research trustworthiness, the data triangulation to check the validity and reliability of the data were employed. The data triangulation itself
is employed through the following steps. First, the researcher evaluated the data of her research with the theoretical concept presented in the chart of the
analytical construct. Second, the researcher read and re-read the data until she reached certainty of the data with valid interpretation with the references
presented in the analytical construct. The researcher was also checked the data with other researcher who are employing post colonial theory for their
thesis and research. She also consulted the data to her consultants. The purpose of doing this technique was to keep the consistency of the data.
F. The Data Analysis
Data analysis is the important part of qualitative research that includes gathering and linking the data to be a concept as it is stated by Given
2008:186. Further Given mentions that there are six steps in data analysis which are organizing and preparing the data, reading through all the data,
coding the data, giving a description, interrelating description and interpreting the meaning of description. Thus, six steps to analyze the data are explained
below: 1.
The first is identifying the data from the play script by making some notes
2. The second is reading and re-reading the whole data and arranging the
data into a theme : racial prejudice in an interracial marriage in the United States
3. The third is coding and categorizing the data in the data table into
some categories related to the form of the racial prejudice in the Norther US based on Fanons theory.
4. The fourth is sorting the data by selecting the relevant data and
excluding the irrelevant data. The selected relevant data were classified and interpreted according to its thematic meaning
5. The fifth is making the interrelation between the description of the
data and the theory to get the findings based on the objectives, the
