One example of this is when President Snow visits Katniss (Collins
18). He threatens Katniss that if she does not calm down the districts that are
thinking of a rebellion then loved ones such as Gale will be in danger. Katniss
has no choice but to follow through on this plan. Another example of President
Snow enforcing his power is on page 172. On this page, President Snow announces
that former hunger games victors will be forced back into the hunger games. To
President Snow, Katniss is the symbol of hope for the rebellion. If she dies
like he hopes her to, the rebellion will stop.
President Snow's power has started to fade throughout the book.
When Katniss was saved after the games the rebellion officially started. Snow's
power is starting to slip away. In the world today, many dictators rule their
countries enforcing poverty. This is a real-life issue that needs to be solved in
this book, as well as in the real world.
I agree that power is a real-life issue. Some people have too much of it, and some people don't have enough. I like how you connected the issue to what's happening in your book. Btw that's a really good book
ReplyDeleteLike Liana had said, power is a really big issue in real life. It's good how you're able to connect a dystopian society to real life.
