Discrimination In The Crucible

How many common misconceptions have you ever heard about Muslims recently? Today we hear thousands of people say discriminating things toward a certain race. Recently, a lot of people have been talking about Muslims and saying “all Muslims are terrorist” and if not that something along those lines. Mostly because the media that catches everyone’s eye, emphasises the relationship between some sort of attack and their race. In relation to the play ‘The Crucible’ written by Arthur Miller, the people who have the authority around the village are what influences the rest of the population to think the way that they do. They constantly talk about their religion and focus on witches who they are deeply frightened by. We can see in the play, Fear is
First, looking at the discrimination of Muslims in the modern world.

The man in this article was accused of being a terrorist, after some man had photoshopped a picture that he posted on social media, and made it seem as though he had a bomb on him. “‘Learn the difference between me being a Sikh, and a Muslim. In gauging this entire incident--millions upon millions of people have seen the photoshopped images, and have placed me as a terrorist.' Mr Jubbal posted on Monday, adding that he was trending in several countries and languages.” This is showing that many people will go along with whatever they have heard from a social power that is higher than their own.
