Expert Solution

"The ones who walk away from Omelas" fiction describes how Omelas, a city in Utopia, is productive and successful at the expense of the joy and freedom of a six-year-old child. The city has no enslaved people, leaders, priests, or military. Most citizens notice the injustice in keeping the child in misery to secure the city's happiness, but nothing they can do to rescue the child (Le Guin, 2017). Perhaps, some who cannot withstand such immorality and injustice walk away to unknown destinations. I think the story gives a perfect view of the discrimination of the minority groups keeping them in poor living conditions to secure the happiness of the majority and powerful.
