“The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson takes what seems to be a typical small town setting and turns it into a much more chilling occasion. Jackson’s theme of the dark side of human nature is revealed through symbolism and irony. In "The Lottery," Jackson shows how people in today's society are tainted and will blindly follow a tradition, even if it is immoral. Jackson implants a great deal of symbolism into “The Lottery;” even the title itself is a symbol. A lottery according to our own modern…

Was Scout racist? No, she was the product of a culture that believes in white supremacy. Her use of undoubtedly racist language isn’t a reflection of her but rather the people around her. Often after hearing a rude remark about a black man, a friend of hers was upset, but Scout explained to him that, “he’s just a negro.” (Lee 199) .

Chayse crouched behind a wild tangle of brush with Stonebender. They peered between spring buds and leaves at a camp in the upheaval of moving. Marley touched his shoulder, his mouth twisted as if he had eaten something bitter, his brow raised in askance. Chayse shook his head, he shrugged, his hands spread in bewilderment. The last time he saw the camp it only consisted of six or seven nilmorg. Now the camp bristled with a score of battle ready nilmorg, a pack of rsakmorg handlers, and…
