Friday 2/12/10
We can’t recreate what we did on Friday. However, from your own experiences, you can think
about human nature:
 By the end of Animal Farm, it is clear that some animals are “more equal than others”
and life on the farm has returned to some familiar hierarchies. Using your own life
experiences and Orwell’s views, what is human nature? Are people inherently good, and
more concerned with the betterment of society, or are they inherently evil and selfish, and
bound to oppress others to meet their own needs? (Spend 30 minutes)
