What is your opinion on the desirability of the intersection between contemporary political and ideological struggles and works of art or literature? Feel free to draw upon prior experiences with art and literature as evidence to support your stance; however, you should use specific evidence from Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler’s as the primary example for your argument. Be sure to: take a clear stance, where you position yourself on one side of the spectrum of thought or the other (although it does not have to be an absolutist position), account for potential counter-arguments, and to provide evidence for both your position and for your interpretation of how your source text (the book that you read) relates to this argument.
