How can we apply this story to our modern day setting?
* the story is called “ the yellow star”*
One way we can apply the story of "The Yellow Star" to our modern day setting is by drawing parallels between the discrimination and prejudice faced by the characters in the story and the discrimination and prejudice faced by marginalized groups today.
For example, the yellow star symbolized the segregation and dehumanization of the Jewish people during the Holocaust. Today, we see similar forms of discrimination against various marginalized groups, such as immigrants, LGBTQ+ individuals, people of color, and religious minorities. By reflecting on the ways in which historical injustices continue to impact modern society, we can work towards creating a more inclusive and equitable world.
Additionally, the story serves as a reminder of the importance of standing up against injustice and speaking out in support of those who are being marginalized. Just as the characters in the story banded together to support each other in the face of oppression, we can work towards building solidarity and allyship with marginalized communities in our own lives. By actively challenging discriminatory beliefs and behaviors, we can help prevent history from repeating itself and create a more compassionate and accepting society.
