Part 1
Artifact Reason
The Hunger Game The character of Katniss has been portrayed
with all its magnificence however with the
proceeding of the story there has been shift
in a character. It is not a love story but a
struggle that she goes through and thereby
giving a different perspective about the
character of women. Her desire to survive
had shook the mentality of a number of
viewers. She had been receiving various
things and simultaneously she kept on
throwing them away with equal power as
she rejects them. the rejects power as well.
She disregards feelings because she
consider it as a luxury, which she cannot
afford. Her decision to bring the injustice
and corrupt system down portrays her in a
light that is different from the conventional
portrayal off women (Ellis, 2020).
Part 2
Ethnic Group Example Universal Human Experience
The concept of the Honorary White where
the people belonging to the Asian American
origin are marginalized however, their
marginalization does not come to the notice
primarily because they are perceived as
equal to the white dominant community
On the contrary it can be noted that the
discrimination and the imposition that the
women go through because of their racial
identity is boosted by their subjugation in
their homeland owing to the patriarchal
setup and their discrimination in the new
country that emerges from the Christian
society equally patriarchal in its outlook
(huffpost.com, 2020).
