One main idea that can be seen in the four books we read and the movie that we watched, everyone is treated specific ways because of how they are different from the others around them. The way that people interact with others is based mostly on how different they are from them. Reading about how things use to be and being able to see how little has changed over time just confirms that we need to work together to change things for the better. Everyone knows how people will treat others different because of how they are different but it’s harder to read about, there is more detail and it makes it so much more real than when you heard about it quickly from someone else. Treating someone different just because of how they look, because of the family they come from, their religion, or even where they live is just wrong; words and actions hurt people more than they will often let off.

As we could tell throughout the course the actions of others hurt these people. In Frankenstein the Creature wanted to be accepted and to learn from the beginning and he asked Frankenstein to make him a wife that is like him so that he has someone that would love him, not run away scared like everyone else who saw him did (Shelley, 2008). All of that confirms what I have always known, people just want to be accepted and want to be treated the same as others. It hurts when you see someone being treated differently and better than you, it should not matter where you come from, who you come from, or your religion, but sadly it does. Society as a whole is very judging, anyone that is different gets treated differently, and this is well known and seen, even though it is not always
