Answer:

The man uses the cameras as a practical tool to call the attention of television viewers nationwide, so people will realize how white officers mistreat Black Americans in their fight against white oppressors, thereby, preventing the policemen from using physical force.

Explanation:

This is an old technique implemented by Dr. Martin Luther King back in the 60's, when he fought for civil rights. Through this he would use the mass media to show Americans, that Civil Rights Movements is not a violent movement.

The man uses prayer to show the cameras and journalists present how African Americans at the time were oppressed by white Americans. By praying instead of reacting with anger, the man's actions elevate the moral purpose of the civil rights movement and show that the police are acting as oppressors, thereby, preventing the policemen from using physical force. The man hopes to evoke sympathy and a reaction from the audience so that more people join the fight for civil rights. He achieves what he is attempting to do as he is arrested and the officers are made to look despotic. The use of prayer highlights the strategy of the SCLC to use nonviolence, reason, and morality in their struggle. (from plato)

Write an essay of at least 200 words that explains the significance of Orwell's choice of a farm as the setting of his story.
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

When Orwell saw a kid whipping a horse, he had an idea: "It struck me that if only such animals became aware of their strength we should have no power over them, and that men exploit animals in much the same way as the rich exploit the proletariat."

Hello, Animal Farm.

On Orwell's Animal Farm-originally Manor Farm-different animals represent different members of the proletariat (working class) or the Russian communist regime. We won't take you through all the details here (see "Symbols, Imagery, Allegory" and the "Character Analyses" for the full lowdown), but the point is that Orwell picked the setting of the farm because it would work well as an allegory.

At the same time, Orwell includes little details like, "the birds jumped on to their perches, the animals settled down in the straw, and the whole farm was asleep in a moment" (1.20). There's no allegorical purpose to these images; they just give the setting a sense of completeness (although may not exactly realism).

But why an English farm rather than, say, a Russian farm? Well, Orwell wasn't just criticizing Stalin. He was also criticizing the myth of Stalinism that intellectuals all over the West believed. By setting it in England, he brought it that much closer to home
