Our Commander in Chief has ruffled quite a few feathers and is not swayed by people’s negative connotation when he mentions such...

The society we live in will always push and suppress our individual thoughts, freedom, action and integrity; whether we like it or not. These classic pieces of literature, George Orwell’s ‘1984’ and Arthur Miller’s ‘The Crucible’, show us how our society’s loss of individuality is still being searched for even since the 1950s.

I would say that he can set an example for children to be themselves no...
