Did Atwood purposely make a mention to slavery?
Spoilers for around page 100 of handmaid's tail
>!I am reading The Handmaid's Tale and at page \~100, Offred details the reading of the Bible as propaganda towards their purpose as child bearers and nothing else. Does Atwood do this to intentionally mirror how African American slaves in the United States were often read misquoted parts of the Bible to feel as though their purpose is for slavery and nothing else?!<
