Blackpool is one of the factory worker in Bounderby’s factory. He is honest, works hard but still have a difficulty life. I admire Blackpool because although he has trouble or hardship he is still stick with is value and integrity.
Stephen is an important character not only because his poverty and righteousness opposite from Bounderby self-interest, and wealthiness. Stephen is a middle man between labor, lower class and rich class. He also against to join worker’s reunion because he think it is bad way to develop relations between factory owner and employees. Most importantly he believe that earning living honestly is the way he choose to live his life.
He also rejected Mr. Bounderby to spy on his colleague though it causes him to big troubles. Actually, in this story both rich and poor people reflected self interested and betraying but Stephen chose not to be one of them. He believe in his moral and value and that makes him to different from the rest of the group and also better than the rich.
Self respect and integrity is the values that make Blackpool standing out like a star in the novel. That star makes him able to shine in the dark is same as his standing by his values and integrity makes him strong and able to go thru difficulty and tough time and survive. He is not rich but he can be proud of they way he lives his life unlike right that do not have values or self respected.
