The problems of Segregation
January 15 1482
Through these past several months there have been countless cases of segregation through all the citizens that the problem has fallen upon. One of the most recent times that segregation has been shown by all is when, these citizens segregate Mr. Quasimodo because of his visual appearance to the world and how such a man considered to have a “deformed” figure of his body just because of his hunched over back, his eye problems, being def, and his so called “deformed face.” All of this has led to the segregation of these people and even others “using” these people that have “deformed figures” to be used as entertainment such as the Fool’s Pope that was won by Quasimodo only because of his “disfigured face.” We can all make a difference if we just decided to break down the walls of segregation and accept these people into our society and maybe even into our lives. I guess what I am trying to say is just making a new friend couldn’t possibly hurt.
