Activism as a Recourse for Poverty. This paper discusses the problem of poverty and the course of action that individuals and groups can take to address societal ills such as poverty. The specifics of what constitutes societal problems differs from society to society, but the basic spirit remains. Some societies in our world, like that of Offred's (which is mirrored in any dictatorial, patriarchal, oppressive society), are indeed directly harmful to broad selections of that society. Poverty is an oppression. Like many liberation theologians, Ngugi uses Marxist social analysis. Each character represents a broader section of society and the individuals they rebel against represent the whole of the governing body of society.10 pgs, bibliography lists 3 sources.
