Answer: Because they are blindly following the tradition of the lottery and are afraid that, if they did not continue with this ritual, it would bring them bad luck.
Explanation:
In "The Lottery", a short story by Shirley Jackson, an annual lottery is held at the end of each June. One citizen who draws a slip of paper with a black spot dies by stoning. By portraying a community that blindly follows this pointless ritual, Jackson mocks people who do not accept a change and stick to the past. The villagers are afraid of the lottery and believe that one innocent individual must be sacrificed so that a good harvest is ensured. They continue to participate in this ritual, regardless of how brutal and senseless it obviously is.
Shakespeare's time was from about the middle of the end to the end of the Renaissance. One change from his time is woman's rights. Women were looked down upon when it came to many things like sailing and because of this, some became pirates. Two famous pirates from the renaissance were Grace O'Malley and Charlotte De Berry. Another change is that there were more governments with queens or kings and royalty/dynasties ruled instead of elected people.
The <em>Chinese Exclusion Act</em> was the first/only legislation suspending immigration for a particular nationality; prohibiting Chinese workers from entering the United States of America, and also prevented Chinese workers from returning to the country if they had left.
A lot of years of xenophobia and racial antipathy by white Americans preceded restrictions against other nationalities as well.
The law notably decreased the number of Chinese immigrants, and put them under a massive government scrutiny, it also separated families, and their business were closed down.
