The topic I have chosen is refugee camps. We all know what a refugee camp is. We’ve either learned about them throughout our history classes, through books, or through peoples the opinions. When I think about what a refugee camp is, I imagine hopeless people being bossed around by people who think they’re better than the ones who “are” hopeless. The actual meaning of what a refugee camp is a camp in which (usually) are of the same race or religion; camps in which the government builds or runs them.
In many of my history classes, I’ve learned about how horrible refugee camps were and are. Many refugee camps were built throughout all wars. A famous refugee camp was for the Jews during the time of when Adolf Hitler was dictator. Most refugee camps were built to help the people and others were built to kill them little by little. Not all refugee camps are what they seem to me for example as how I see what a refugee camp is.
In my opinion, refugee camps connect to the book “Unwind” by how the characters are suppose to be sent to be unwound. Meaning as in they’re suppose to do it even without having a choice. The characters do not have the choice to be unwound just like the people in refugee camps; they do not have the choice to live there. Some people are forced to live in a refugee camp without wanting to. There isn’t much that connects from the book to refugee camps but that’s as much as it could possibly connect between them both.
