In Ralph ellison's story invisible man Who does the invisible man imitate?

First of all there are two totally different novels with the title Invisible Man. One is a science fiction novel by H.G. Wells, in this one- rather like Jekyll and Hyde the Invisible man lets his new=found powers go to his head- enters into criminal acts and so on. a movie variation - with somewhat different powers =but acquired accidentally when a Bus hits an electrical pole ( hey, it could happen_ a stuntman called Dynamo Dan, the Electrical Man gets powers akin to Lightning Lad in Adventure comics- and again abuses them- in both stories the inventor-Victim"s Dogs remain loyal and constant/ The movie ( about the electically-charged man) was called Man-Made Monster and starred Lionel Atwill in the title role. I have not read the Ellison (Invisible Man) but it is NOT a science -fiction tale at all= but the life of a marginalized ( hence Invisible) man who I believe is a writer- no super powers here. I hope this is of help.


Why is the KKK called the invisible empire?

The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is referred to as the "Invisible Empire" due to its secretive nature and the use of intimidation and fear to exert control over communities, especially in the post-Civil War South. The term reflects the Klan's clandestine operations, where members often wore robes and masks to conceal their identities, creating a sense of anonymity. This secrecy allowed them to operate outside the law and maintain an atmosphere of terror while presenting themselves as a legitimate force for white supremacy and racial purity.
