There are many people in our society today experiencing some form of inequality. Some of these people are being used as scapegoats and have done nothing to try to achieve equality for themselves. During this semester we have read many novels showing forms of inequality and prejudice, but the two that stand out the most are Pigs in Heaven and The Crucible. Both of these novels have a certain group in thier society that has been treated unfairly and they both strive to achieve equality for themselves. The Indians from Pigs in Heaven have been experincing inequality for a long time. It started in the 1800's when they were moved from their homeland to the reservations in Oklahoma. The trail to Oklahoma is called the Trail of Tears because so many of the Indians died. The children from the indian tribe were take
The girls got caught in the woods putting spells on people and so they would not get into trouble they blamed Tituba for being a witch. Then others were accused to keep from getting in trouble. Putam bid his daughter to accuse Mr. Those that did not confess were hung and this was their attempt at equality. This law ensured the child to be involved with the nation and it also stated that no child can be adopted legally without the permission of the tribe. Abigail had Elizabeth Proctor accused, so she could have John Proctor for herself. In The Crucible there were many attempts to achieve equality for those accused. These children were raised by white englishmen and never learned the ways of their tribe. Some of the children taken were adopted for no reason at all. Some did not confess to the accusation, such as John Proctor, Martha Corey, Rebecca Nurse and many others. Others, like John Proctor tried to stand up to the court, but this failed too because the court could never be wrong. Equality is important for all people of every society to have; because, it allows us all to live in peace without anybody being superior to another. In the novel the Indians solved one of their problems which was the snatching of their children. These people were being accused for alterior motives and were not given their equal rights in court.
