What is the difference between reading a book for entertainment versus reading a

book as protest literature? In what way could a simple book change the world? How does it do it
exactly for you? How did Spiegelman’s book and Urrea’s book do this for you?

Answer:

Protest Literature is a text that protests society. But, when you think about it, is literature divided into protest type literature OR is it is a way that someone artistically expressed themselves? People put their emotion, values, and things that they are concerned about into literature every day that they want you to read. Is it protest to portray your point of view on a given subject? You desire change. Society needs to change. Why not write what you believe and encourage others to see what your point of view is?

Spiegelman had a nervous breakdown. He decided to unload on the world with his comic about his parent's Holocaust experience. His father was a survivor of Auschwitz. He wanted to change the comic book world. He was a graphic novelist!

Urrea's book was non fiction too. He wrote about the deaths of 14 Mexicans attempting to cross into the US.

I think that if you have the opportunity to compare and contrast, I would focus on the fact that these people who suffered were all immigrants. Both stories are about hope and death. Both stories show that there is a need for change. Write about Bias against these people and discuss how the bodies of each of the groups of people discussed in each story were horrendous and awful for a human to experience.

Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

When I read about the Holocaust, I do not do it for pleasure. When I read about illegal immigrants and children being stuck in pens, I do not read it for pleasure. I read it to learn how I can be a game changer in our world. How can I change the way the things were done this and how can we finally have peace?
