Prejudice By Maren and Emma

Racial  Crooks: because Crooks is black the farmers have a racial prejudice against him.  Racism was common in this time. With the Civil Rights Movement soon approaching.  He feels unwelcome in their living spaces and does not like having them in his rooms  "…You go on get outta my room. I ain’t wanted in the bunk house, and you ain’t wanted in my room." "Why ain’t you wanted?" Lennie asked. "’Cause I’m black…"

 "S'pose you didn't have nobody. S'pose you couldn't go into the bunk house and play rummy 'cause you was black.”  This quote comments on the exclusion that Crooks feels from the others on the farm.  George patted a wrinkle out of his bed, and sat down. "The boss gave the stable buck hell?" he asked. "Sure. Ya see the stable buck’s a nigger.“

Lennie and George’s Relationship  It is assumed that George is using Lennie. That he makes him work and then takes his money because Lennie is less intelligent and seldom answers.  “Say – what you sellin’?” “Huh?” “I said what stake you got on this guy? You takin’ his pay away from him?”  It is rare that two men travel together in these hard times. This quote is from a conversation between the boss and George about Lennie and shows how sceptical the boss is towards their situation.

Sexism Curley’s Wife Doesn't get a name throughout the novel Is made out to be a tart and a rattrap Can only get attention by being flirtatious with the men Is not allowed to do as she pleases on the ranch

“Ranch ain’t no place for a girl”

Novel as a Whole Although the prejudices are never addressed or consciously noted the victims of prejudice are still included as a part of the ranch. Sexism It shows the limitations of rights for women in the novel in relation to the context. Racism  Even though they discriminate against Crooks’ race they still talk kindly of him. Lennie and George  It shows the doubts that people have in the stability of relationships between men because of the pressures in this time, such as the American Dream.
