considering this ... ( 3 months ago by queenbeehoneyd)

considering this was based in the 60s and practically everyone who lived in that town was a desendant from people who lived there previously, i doubt they let outsiders in very much and black people and hispanics and such were not included in these very small communities before the 70's. its not meant to be racist, its just fact. they have to keep these kinds of details in mind when doing something as well known as "The Lottery".

I can't see how it could be based on Vietnam War when the basis for the story is from a short story published in 1948. Shirley Jackson is the author of the story.

macampos63, At my job I ask people all the time..."Why do we do this?" or "Wouldn't be easier if we did it this way?"... to my dismay they usually respond with "We've always done it like this." (no reason behind it) They will not change even if it were to BETTER themselves. That is the point behind the whole story. I can really relate to this.
