 Humanities paragraph - Lawyer paragraph

Article 1: All human beings are born free and equal in dignity + rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

Martha: Martha is treated like a slave by her parents, she has been taught to respect The Righteous because her family is a part of the religious cult. She also was raised to treat Jim/Abomination like a prisoner and she was separated from her sister which she loved and respected. Her mother and father have taken away her personal freedom, she has basic human rights but she is treated unfairly. Quote from Martha: “No friends because I’m righteous” and/or “If I can’t have friends around, I can’t have friends.” - Pg13. This proves that Martha has been affected by the way her mother and father have raised her, making her believe that she can't have any friends and this has had a very bad effect on her social wellbeing. This makes the audience feel sympathetic for Martha and what she has lived through. The author did this to add excitement and emotion to the story, and to Martha and Scott's growth of their friendship.
