Pub #3 - Martin Luther King Said... "Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed."  -Martin Luther King, Jr.       Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a Genevan author, philosopher, and a famous musician of the eighteenth century, once stated “Absolute silence leads to sadness. It is the image of death” Based on the philosophical findings on the study of Egalitarianism, the belief of social equality, silence is the worst form of oppression and is pernicious to the idea of equivalence among-st all people.

Creon’s order to not bury Polyneices, Antigone’s brother, is the statute set for the land of Thebes. However, Antigone follows what she believes in, contradicting Creon’s order by burying her brother. Antigone is adhering to her moral beliefs, while Creon is set with the obligation to follow orders. The action of Antigone following moral law instead of physical law benefits both herself and society.           Herbert George Wells, a world–renowned author a...
