Assignment

that unquestioned assumptions, especially when shared by a community,
are difficult to change.

In your discussion, show why assumptions are difficult to challenge.

assumptions that our culture accepts, and their consequences. Also, you
will enlighten your readers by revealing the rich symbolic content of “The
Lottery.” As usual, you should tell us something we may not have noticed
