Frederick Douglass, an abolitionist of our past, once said, “If there is no struggle, there is no progress” This quote helps to remind us that learning isn’t something that comes easily. You can read a book start to finish and not remember it, you can learn a math lesson and know how to answer the problems and know how to do it, but either way without a slight struggle there is no progression in how you learn. I, personally know that if I don’t struggle on a subject while learning it I don’t feel like I’ve properly learned that subject. Some people think is as easy as picking up a book and that emotions are something you can just avoid easily. However, emotions aren’t something you can just control, they’re a feeling that can’t be put on a leash, and learning is not easy. You can’t just pick up a book and know what it’s about. The texts in this collection focus on dystopian societies and how they are different from ours. Ray Bradbury’s novel Fahrenheit 451 focuses on a dystopian society where books are no longer legal and they have to burn down the houses of the people who read the books.
