Blog post 7#

I picked choice C. I think most of this story is about race because in the trial they voted for Bob Ewell because he was white not and it was a fraud vote because his lawyer had good evidence. Also When Ms.Dubose said nigger lover and things, this is racist. This is evidence because Atticus was just trying to do his job and they treat him bad for being a lawyer for the Tom Robision. Also I know this novel is about race because though out the story it is about how white people treat black people. Like how the black people have to go to the bad seats in a trial. Even in the book they talked about how if you were mixed they you don’t be long anywhere. This also tells that black people are racist too. Even in the book they talk about how black people are pauper. Also that kissing another color was predicament. Even saying I feel sad for the other race is a prejudice.

My guess is the novel is mostly Race wise but sometimes there is gender like when the book talked about how women can’t hear curse words form a man if they are around. I still think this novel is mostly racism. My option even the black and the whites are racist so I think Maycomb it’s self is racist. I don’t think there is that much class but I bet they was a little bit of it. But this book is irrelvant to have race because that mostly what the story is about. I think scout had become mature but not as much.

  1. Very insightful; TKAM has a lot to do with how race is so controversial in the south, and race is a big message in the book. TKAM also has to do with class and gender, and all three of those topics (race, gender, class) were prosecuted during the 1930s. Also remember that not only Maycomb is racist, but there were many other towns in the south that experienced the same issue.
