The Giver Propaganda Piece
Propaganda is defined as – “A message aimed at persuading
the opinions and behavior of people.” “The spreading of ideas,
information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an
institution, a cause, or a person.”
Now that we have read through several chapters of The Giver,
we have seen different uses of euphemisms throughout the
novel. Your job as a team is to create a propaganda piece that
could be used somewhere in Jonas’ society (example: “Follow
the rules, or you could be released!”). Once you have created
your propaganda poster, type a paper to go onto your poster
explaining how the poster is a piece of propaganda, how it
supports/hurts the society, what it appeals to, the effect of
using a euphemism, and what the euphemism is really means.
Be sure that your propaganda has a fitting image to go along
with the statement you are creating. Below are a list of
euphemisms with the corresponding page numbers you can
find them on.
