#scapegoat

Time for me to play catch up on my own photo challenge. For #scapegoat I give you Oliver Watson opponent for class president Randy Sparks. Oliver basically tortures this kid. If Randy says hi, Oliver screams "stop hitting me", Randy sits next to him at lunch, and Oliver makes everyone think Randy is stealing his lunch money. Randy Sparks is definitely a scapegoat. #characters2017.

#Characters2017 #day22 #Scapegoat Sirius Black was one of the biggest scapegoats in literary history.He spent 12yrs in Azkaban for the murder of Harry's parents,Peter Pettigrew & a street full of muggles,none of which he actually did.When he finally escapes,he's on the run from Dementors & Aurors & even when it's proved he's innocent,it doesn't matter because the real culprit disappears before exonerating him.And then he gets killed by Bellatrix!

Bookworm-Bobbie Poor Sirius 😞 7y
LadyPotterHead That's what I always think, other than the couple of happy years with James,his life is so sad, he hated his family life which he finally escaped at 16 but even then their lives were tarnished by the rising of Lord Voldemort and fighting against him as part of the order, so he never truly had a completely happy and free moment in his life 😭😭😭 7y
LadyPotterHead I'd say James was the love of his life (as a brother figure) and he lost him so early too😭😭 7y

This is such a spoiler I'm hesitant to do it... even with the spoiler tag 😱 #scapegoat #Characters2017 I can't bring myself to type it out. Just in case!

#Characters2017 #scapegoat Hester Prynne is a scapegoat-though she refuses to name the father of her baby. The Puritan community makes her wear the scarlet A & shuns her in condemnation of her sins-convenient because the focus is on Hester & not anyone else & you know there had to be more sinning going on. BTW-Hester has mighty big hair for a puritan on the Penguin Classics cover😆& I stuck in Olive from Easy A & Lilian Gish as Hester along w/Demi

LibrarianRyan Yeah but I love that cover of that book. When we bought that copy we couldn't keep the book on the shelf. 👍🏻🤓 7y
DebinHawaii @LibrarianRyan It is a cool cover! It just makes me laugh looking at how Hester, Pearl & the 'puritans' looking over the fence are depicted. 😆👍 7y

misslala This story was eerie from the beginning. I knew something sinister and dark was happening subtly. Sad. 😐 7y
emilyhaldi I just ordered a graphic novel version of this from Book Outlet! Super excited 👏🏻 7y
Smangela @emilyhaldi Shirley Jackson's grandson did the graphic novel! The foreword is a neat glimpse 🤓 7y
JacqMac This haunted me for so long, after I read it for the first time. It was the kind of scary that really bothers me. 7y
minkyb Oooh I didn't know that @Smangela I need to order it! 7y

He never betrayed James & Lily. He didn't help the Death Eaters escape from Azkaban. #scapegoat
