The Minister’s Black Veil is a tale by Nathaniel Hawthorne that touches base with the troubled times of having to hide one’s secrets behind a simple, yet deeply interpreted black veil.

The fact that he continues on to wear the veil, despite the disrespect and terrible thoughts he receives, shows his dedication and determination to…
