To Kill a MockingBird
|
|
|
In the novel, To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee addresses many controversial issues. Such issues as racism, discrimination, and social class are explored. The novel centers around the trial of Tom Robinson. To the people of Maycomb County, Tom Robinson is just a black man who committed an unthinkable crime. He stands of accused of raping Mayella Ewell, a white woman, in a very racist, Southern town in Alabama. Tom is not guilty of this crime, but is condemned by the bigots of Maycomb because they are afraid to stand up for what is right. Later in the novel, Boo Radley, an intelligent child ruined by a cruel father, kills Bob Ewell in saving Scout and Jem from danger. The sheriff, Mr. Heck Tate, decided to cover up the crime and protects Boo Radley from the publicity of a murder trial. Evidently, sheriff Tate’s decision to bend the law and protect Boo Radley is understandable. Although it’s wrong to kill a person, Boo Radley was trying to protect the children from danger and to prevent a crime from being committed.
