Ender's Game Prejudice Quotes

Have you ever been treated unequal? Have you ever heard of Prejudice? In Ender’s Game the example of prejudice in the book is when the Humans does not treat the thirds and Peter’s kind equal. In the book it shows how Ender and Peter’s kind are not the same. Orson Card’s novel the Ender’s Game shows the human rights issue of Prejudice, when people show hatred of a certain race, or religion.

The first real life issue of Prejudice is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. An example from the article is Article 1. Article 1 states “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.” In Ender’s Game the example of being treated

unequal is “He didn’t like Peter’s kind, the strong against the weak, and he didn’t like his own kind either, the smart against the stupid.” Everyone should be treated equal no matter what or who they are. The consequence of acting out Prejudice or treating people badly is going to prison or having to pay a fine. For instance, Article 2 states “Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.” This affects many people in the United States. How it affects people in the United States is they might lose their job, house, family, and their religion. Prejudice greatly influences what people expect in the future and how they feel about their chances for self-improvement.
On the other hand how Prejudice affects people in another country is war and conflict and in health. For instance in the article Obama says to the Muslims “The relationship between Islam and the West includes centuries of coexistence and cooperation but also conflict and religious wars.” Prejudice can cause war and conflict in other countries. 9/11 was a result of prejudice and lead to war. Families who have a soldier in war in other countries can be greatly affected. And some Muslims cannot travel to the United States. As well as “Palestinians must abandon violence. Resistance through violence and killing is wrong and it does not succeed. For centuries, black people in America suffered the lash of the whip as slaves and the humiliation of segregation.” Violence is not a solution to problems, peace is. In 1960 blacks were forced to work.
Finally the third affect is Death. Specifically in Germany there was a Holocaust in 1933. “The Nazi’s that came to power in Germany believed that that Germans were “racially superior” and the Jews, seemed “inferior,” were an alien threat to the so-called German racial community.” When Adolf Hitler found all the Jews and killed them all. Even though his mom was a Jew. The second example is for instance, “By 1945, the Germans and their collaborators killed nearly two out of every three European Jews as part of the “Final Solution.” The Final Solution affects people everywhere. They die because of their race which is really sad.
In conclusion there are many ways how Prejudice affects people in the United States and other countries. They are Death, War, Conflict, and sometimes can lead to suicide. So, I feel people should love each other and care for each other. In Ender’s Game the human rights issue is Prejudice.
