Sneetches Blog

The story of the Sneetches is an allegory because it has the literal meaning of separating the Sneetches with stars on their bellies and Sneetches with out. But i believe it also has a symbolic meaning, and that that meaning is the segregation of races. Because the Sneetches with stars always though that they were better until they all began going through the machine, they all then realized that they were all the same and their only difference was their stars. This very much relates to the segregation of the races because the whites always thought they were better doing things and ignoring the black people. But in the end of the story all the Sneetches learned they were equal just like America is starting to do now. This point is the point I believe that Dr. Seuss was trying to prove with his story. That everyone is equal no matter what they look like. This is definetly the moral of the story.
