Tyranny, Injustice and Self-determination

On our blogs we have to show how tyranny, injustice and determination show in the characters from the book Animal Farm. In the book, at the beginning, Mr Jones is the one with the power over all the animals but among the animals Benjamin is the one who leads the animals into showing them that humans don't do anything but make them work hard and give them small amounts of food. When he dies the pigs take his place but don't rule for themselves they always see whats best for the farm.

Mr. Jones treated the animals injustice by making them do work and not giving them anything in reward. Towards the end of chapter three the animals plan to take over the farm and self-govern the farm.

The animals were also determined to take over the farm and not have to listen and take orders from Mr. Jones. They wanted to live in on the farm by their choice and not because they had to.
