Sartre believes that we are condemned to be free. He syas that we were thrown into this world but now we are responsible for everything that we do; Sartre does not believe in determinism. How this connects to Walter Benjamin- because we make our own choices, we are unique/authentic, just like an artwork's aura makes it authentic.
