Parable of The Sower by Octavia Butler was about a girl named Lauren who suffers from hyperempathy syndrome, which means she can feel other’s pain and pleasure. The story starts off with her having reacurring dream that shifts from her floating in a house that’s on fire to her hanging up clothes with her mother. Lauren lives inside walls and on her way to get baptized along with some other teens she sees corpses, a naked woman, and a bloodied child. This novel is a scientificion novel that explore climate change,money inequality, and corporate greed in a dystopian future. The music video “Trouble In the Water” by talks about how the water is dirty and how we need to do something to take care of our planet and the water we drink. They even brought up the problems that Flint, Michigan is still facing even now.
I really enjoyed reading and watching these two sources. It was very interesting to read a fictional story in this class and not only that it was about a dystopian future. And listening to this music video was also interesting and fun. I don’t believe that their was many gaps in the story, but for the music video i think it needs for facts to show. Over all i did like these sources and would read and listen to them again. I would recommend these sources to everyone who would listen to these and want to learn more about climate change.
