Decent Essays
The Little Red Riding Hood from the song in the files is different from the Disney production. Disney has so many aspects of each character played in the story. If someone was unfamiliar with a story, it would be very easy to get confused by the lyrics. Come on, that's life. We all make mistakes. I could listen to a song a hundred times and still mess up on the lyrics. On another note, I can know the lyrics to a song and still have no idea what the song is about. The message in the song is different in the story. In the story, the wolf followed Little Red Riding Hood to Grandmothers house. He ate the grandmother & some stories ended with eating Little Red Riding Hood too. With this song, the wolf doesn't want her to walk alone, he wants her

    “It is not our differences that divide us, it is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences,” said Audre Lorde, a Caribbean-American writer, and civil rights activist. In this quote she is saying that if we just agreed that we are different, and we won’t alway get along, then the world would be a more peaceful place. Even in today’s society people are pulled apart from others because of their differences. Even so the society today is better than it was during times like America in the 1930’s, on the Indian reservations, and in Europe between Jews and Christians.…

    She sacrifices herself to temptation, but in such a powerful and mature way that shows she is ready to grow up. With the symbol of the riding hood, wolves represent another form of femininity. When she sees the wolves, “Ten wolves; twenty wolves – so many wolves she could not count them, howling in concert as if demented or deranged” (Carter, 117), she could easily run or succumb to fear as her fairytale counterparts had done before her; however, she sympathizes with the wolves, takes a step above their instinctual nature and uses her own power to realize that they are hurt, desperate animals. This pack also represents the men that try to seduce young women into their power play, taking away their defenses with fear tactics and domination. The girl disputes this by seeing…
