In Scene 6, Mr. De Lacey says, “Most people are friendly—unless they are blinded by prejudice.” What kind of prejudice do people have against the creature? (key ideas)

Answer:

People think that the creature was harmful because it looked horrible. This is a common opinion or judgement of people when it comes to monsters.

Explanation:

The question above is related to the drama about "Frankenstein."

"Mr. De Lacey" is one of the characters in the story. He's a blind peasant who lives in a cottage with his family. When the creature was abandoned by Victor, he wandered into the woods and came into the cottage of Mr. De Lacey. The creature learned to speak after several months, just by watching Mr. De Lacey's family talk to each other. He grew fond of them over time.

In Scene 6, the creature started to have the courage to knock on the peasant's door when his family was not around. He was invited by Mr. De Lacey to come in (since he couldn't see him).

"Prejudice" refers to an opinion about a person without any justifiable reason. People judged the creature as a "monster" who does bad things because of the way he looked. This is the prejudice that people have on the creature in the story.

Final answer:

Mr. De Lacey's statement highlights how prejudice, often based on appearance or other superficial differences, can prevent people from being friendly and accepting towards others, including the creature in the play. This reflects a broader societal tendency to judge and discriminate based on deeply ingrained biases, leading to misunderstanding and exclusion.

Explanation:

In Scene 6 of the play, Mr. De Lacey remarks that "Most people are friendly—unless they are blinded by prejudice." The kind of prejudice people have against the creature is primarily based on its external appearance, which deviates significantly from human norms. This superficial judgment leads to fear, misunderstanding, and hostility, rather than an assessment of the creature's character or humanity. The larger implication here is that individuals, and society as a whole, often have deep-seated biases based on appearances or differences, be it race, gender, age, or in this case, a monstrous form, which can foster discrimination and exclusion.

References in the text discuss the universal tendency of humans to be suspicious of strangers, the handicapping effect of prejudice on different racial groups, how a person's refined characteristics can trigger a revulsion due to other's deformities, and how stereotypes inform one's perception of race, gender, and age, which can lead to distorted views and treatment of individuals.

Excerpt from The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass
Frederick Douglass
I was born in Tuckahoe, near Hillsborough, and about twelve miles from Easton, in Talbot county, Maryland. I have no accurate
knowledge of my age, never having seen any authentic record containing it. By far the larger part of the slaves know as little of
their ages as horses know of theirs, and it is the wish of most masters within my knowledge to keep their slaves thus ignorant. I
do not remember to have ever met a slave who could tell of his birthday. They seldom come nearer to it than planting-time,
harvest time, cherry-time, spring-time, or fall-time. A want of information concerning my own was a source of unhappiness to me
even during childhood. The white children could tell their ages. I could not tell why I ought to be deprived of the same privilege.
I was not allowed to make any inquiries of my master concerning it. He deemed all such inquiries on the part of a slave improper
and impertinent, and evidence of a restless spirit. The nearest estimate I can give makes me now between twenty-seven and
twenty-eight years of age. I come to this, from hearing my master say, some time during 1835, I was about seventeen years old.

"Share Our Wealth" Speech
Huey Long, 1935

Now in the third year of his (FDR) administration, we find more of our people unemployed than at any other time. We find our houses empty and our people hungry, many of them half-clothed and many of them not clothed at all….

We find not only the people going further into debt, but that the United States is going further into debt. The states are going further into debt, and the cities and towns are even going into bankruptcy. The condition has become deplorable. Instead of his promises, the only remedy that Mr. Roosevelt has prescribed is to borrow more money if he can and to go further into debt. The last move was to borrow $5 billion more on which we must pay interest for the balance of our lifetimes, and probably during the lifetime of our children…

That is why the Share Our Wealth societies are forming in every nook and corner of America….They have a great work to perform. Here is what we stand for in a nutshell:

Number one, we propose that every family in America should at least own a homestead equal in value to not less than one third the average family wealth…. So our first proposition means that every family will have a home and the comforts of a home up to a value of not less than around $5,000 or a little more than that.

Number two, we propose that no family shall own more than three hundred times the average family wealth, which means that no family shall possess more than a wealth of approximately $5 million….

Number three, we propose that every family shall have an income equal to at least one third of the average family income in America…. We propose that no family will have an earning of less than around $2,000 to $2,500 and that none will have more than three hundred times the average less the ordinary income taxes, which means that a million dollars would be the limit on the highest income.
What is the social and historical context of this speech?

A) It is given during a time of great national prosperity.
B) It is given during a time of great national unity.
C) It is given during a time of great national poverty.
D) It is given during a time of great national mystery.

Read the excerpt from Into the Unknown by Stewart Ross, and then look at the image below.
Among the earliest Europeans to show an interest in Africa beyond its shores was Joseph Banks, the botanist who had sailed with
Captain Cook. Many others were inspired by him, including the Scottish doctor and missionary, David Livingstone. Between 1854
and 1856, Livingstone made the first recorded east-west journey across the continent-from Luanda, the capital city of modern-day
Angola, to Quelimane, a seaport on the coast of modern-day Mozambique. On his return, he wrote a best-selling book, Missionary
Travels, in which he described a country quite different from that which his readers had imagined. Instead of bare, arid desert, he
wrote of rich tropical forests, lush plains, and spectacular rivers like the Zambezi. Europeans learned for the first time about the
Zambezi's Mosioa-Tunya Falls, which Livingstone was the first Westerner to see.

Read this excerpt from "Painting Freedom on the Walls."

When a wave of Mexican settlers began to come to San Diego in the 1890s, many of them made their home in an area known as Logan Heights. Soon that area was called Barrio Logan. (In Spanish, a barrio is a neighborhood.) At first, Barrio Logan was a neighborhood of homes and shops that stretched from well inland all the way to San Diego Bay, and the people had access to the beach. Then, during World War II, the beach was closed. In the 1950s, the city changed the zoning of the area so that industry could move into the neighborhood. Soon, the barrio was spotted with noisy, dirty junkyards. In the 1960s, Interstate 5 and ramps for the San Diego-Coronado Bridge cut Barrio Logan in half. About 5,000 homes were destroyed in the process.
By this time, the residents were very angry about the terrible damage to their barrio. They protested loudly. Finally, the City Council of San Diego promised them a park to help make up for the damage. The council set aside land for that purpose. And then, in 1970, bulldozers arrived to turn the land into a parking lot. A student, Mario Solis, saw them, asked what was going on, and started spreading the word. Within a few hours, there were 250 people in the park, blocking the bulldozers.
The people of Barrio Logan won their battle and got their park. They planted cactus and other native plants, but there was something missing. An artist named Salvador Torres came up with the idea of putting murals on the concrete pillars that supported the freeway. Chicano Park was born.

Which event inspired the idea to paint murals in San Diego?

A. beach closures during World War II
B. the construction of Interstate 5
C. the number of new settlers in the 1890s
D. an artist looking at concrete pillars
