Of Mice and Men
Banned Book Project
The 1930's
In the 1930's people rarely treated one another with respect, and segregation was a big part of that time period.
Of Mice and Men should not be banned.....
This piece of literature should not be banned because it helps us learn from our mistakes in the past. Our world today has come very far from our world in the 1930's.
John Steinbeck
Steinbeck has taught us many life lessons throughout Of a Mice and Men. By reading this book we can help make our world a better place today.
Theme
Steinbeck uses derogatory language and people that treat one another horribly to teach the reader life lessons. He wants us to have respect for one-another. He also wants us to look past people's outward appearance, and look at their heart.
