Symbolism Of 'Color In The Giver'

The differences between the pictures in greyscale and the coloured ones, is that the ones in colour seem more alive and eye catching. While the black and white ones look dull and lifeless. I think that everything in Jonas’ community is in greyscale, because colours are used to portray emotion and everyone can describe a colour as a different emotion. For example, the colour red id used to describe anger most of the time, but someone may interpret red as love. In this case this one colour had two different meanings, and in Jonas’ community being different is discouraged. I also think that everything might be all in greyscale so that people won’t be different. By the way they use colour to express emotions and how they use colour to present themselves.
