Sameness and Equality

There are many differences in the two words, sameness and equality. Sameness is being the same, like everyone is exactly the same, in looks, what they wear, everything. Where as equality is more regarding equal rights. Having the right and to be able to do what everyone else does. A problem in equality is when one person has more rights than the other. But sameness can be similarity or likeness. Equality is an equal opportunity to everything. Lois Lowry uses the word sameness in her books alot becuase the book mainly heads towards appeareance, what they all do the same, they all have the same emotions and the same feelings. In Animal Farm, the author uses the word equality alot becuase it is more about race. The difference between the pigs and the dogs, and ducks and horses. It is about the pigs being more equal than the rest.
In conclusion equality and sameness are the different that may seem like they have the same meaning but they regard different issues.

the definitions are nicely put. I really like the way you describes each word. I agree that sameness is more in the appearance whereas equality regards mostly on rights. You could improve it by telling us who you think uses these words more efficiently. Overall, good job !
