On pp. 23-24, Sartre explains that the individual is not only responsible for their own existence, that is, they not only must choose for themselves, but they are also responsible for all humanity, and that they must choose for all of humanity.

Using at least one example of your own, explain in your own words in what sense am I responsible for all of humanity? And if it is through choice and action that I create value, in what sense do I choose and create value for all of humankind? Does Sartre mean that I should be constantly thinking about the rest of humanity when making every little choice? Why or why not?

Finally, analyze what Sartre means when he writes, " we can never choose evil," although choosing itself is inevitable. In what sense am I choosing "good," for instance, if I am choosing to commit murder?

[In your response, when explaining the concepts of responsibility, choice and the creation of value, remember Sartre's prior discussion that there is no pre-established set of values -- so be careful not to assume a pre-given notion of good/ bad or right/ wrong. Pages 23-24 are important to consult for your response, but I also encourage you to pay attention to the discussion on Anguish and Abandonment (and his own examples when discussing these topics) where Sartre clarifies these ideas further].
