Social Injustice in Lord of the Flies and Ancient Egypt Article by James Alsip

The social injustice in Ancient Egypt is similar to the social injustice in lord of the flies. There are different powers of each level in the social hierarchy. The levels of power in social hierarchy in Ancient Egypt are pharaoh, Government officials, soldiers, scribes, merchants, and farmers and slaves while the levels of power in the social hierarchy in LOTF are Ralf, Jack, the rest of the hunters, Piggy, and the littluns. Ralf and the Pharaoh choose what will happen because they are leaders. The littluns are similar to farmers and slaves because they have no say in any decisions. Who you are in LOTF and in Ancient Egypt influences how you will be treated just like Ancient Egypt.
