Pedagogy of the Oppressed, chapters three and four, discuss the depth of the oppressed and the oppressors, the importance of dialogue, and how this quality is portrayed in revolutionary leaders. Freire discusses the contrasting theories between the dominant elites and the revolutionary leaders to help explain that anti-dialogical dominant elites conquer the minds and freedom of the oppressed in different ways.

of the trial in a story-like form, beginning with ‘once upon a time’ (Henderson, 31).

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) reported on December 8th, 2014, “60.6% [out of] 1,402 hate crimes . . . based on sexual orientation [are] classified as anti-gay (male) bias” (Latest Hate Crime Statistics Report Released). Crimes against homosexuals have been reported nationwide, but a hate crime in Laramie, Wyoming changed the gay community.
