The story is told through flashbacks in his life. Hewas an orator who was chosen to present a speech in exchange for a scholarship to a college. He recieves the scholarship and goes off to college where he is the driver for the school's trustee, Mr. Norton. Mr. Norton is drinking and passes out from this. Dr. Bledose, the dean, hears of this and instantly blames the invisible man and expels him promptly. He then heads to New York City in search of work. He finds a menial job and starts working, but is knocked unconscious while at work. He awakes to a member of a brotherhood who heard his speech, and asks him to join the brotherhood. He agrees. The narrator works with the brotherhood for several months before a magazine interviews him. The brotherhood is angered and blames him for using the brotherhood for his own private gain and forces him to work in Harlem for women's rights.
