The author's message for the human rights issue is to a right to economic opportunity, a right to a fair wage, and a right to medical assistance for those with special needs. I am doing the same assignment and that is all I have so far. Hoped it helped some. :).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many instances of discrimination in Of Mice and Men that authors speaks about in the novella. This story takes place during the Great Depression. For example in Of Mice and Men Lennie, who is a mental disable person is discriminated. Such discrimination is known as "Ableism". He suffers from memory loss.

One such instance occurred when they were looking for a job George, told Lennie not to say a word for if he speaks then the boss will know that he is a crazy.

"That ranch we're goin' to is right down there about a quarter-mile. We're gonna go in an' see the boss. Now, look—I'll give him the work tickets, but you ain't gonna say a word. You jus' stand there and don't say nothing. If he finds out what a crazy bustard you are, we won't get no job, but if he sees ya work before he hears ya talk, we're set."
