Evil Minds Think Alike
This whole story is about the theme
insensible traditions. The black box tradition or the lottery was probably away
to tell witch prisoner to execute their crimes because they probably did not
have a jail. In today's society and even in the 1940's society it would be seen
as an insensible tradition.
Back during the 1940's there was World War
2 the Nazis were in Europe doing much of the same thing that these people are
doing. In Germany the Jews being rounded up and put in consotration camps if
people were found hiding a Jew they would be killed. To get on the good side of
the Gestapo you had to rat out someone. Which is like they did in the short
story the "lottery” the picked a random person to execute.
This was very confusing because you have no thesis, no topic, and you did not say what the writing was about like the title of the story and the author.
ReplyDeleteGood job. I saw a couple spelling and grammar errors, but it was a good connection.
ReplyDeleteKind of confusing make sure to look your pieces over before posting them. Use spell check. Grammar, sentence fluency, and lack of thesis are things to look to change. But good idea, add some more details and evidence from the story.
ReplyDeleteNice piece Austin. You could have explained more where you got the comparison, but nice piece.
ReplyDeletei think it is awesome in every way
