In “The Allegory of the Cave,” Plato asks us to consider the nature of reality. In some ways, Plato and LeGuin are asking us the same question. As you watch this video to reinforce your understanding of “The Allegory of the Cave,” think about how Plato and Le Guin might discuss reality and our place within it. Should we stay in the cave? Should we stay in Omelas? Are there external forces that encourage us to make one decision over another? How much should we fear the
unknown?
In a 150 word post, work to explore and answer the questions posed above. Try to draw on specific parts of each text to reinforce your ideas.
