What was it abt? My sis have it but it looks so thick
It’s been awhile since I read it but I believe it’s about a black man on trial, accused of murder and he’s represented by a white man. There are also the kids of the white man and other issues going on. Long story short, it’s a story about racial tensions.
*the black man is accused of raping a white woman, not murder. Think about Jim Crow era and racial tensions and injustice towards black people.
It's a book about racial inequality in the deep south of America in the 30 or 40's in a small town. Its told through the point of view of a little girl called Scout.
The story is about how slowly grows up and becomes more aware of how the world works. The main plot of the book is how she watches her father who is a lawyer in a small town, represent a black man called Tom who is accused of raping a young white girl. The young girl (and her wider family, particularly her father) are essentially viewed as white trash. The story (through scouts eyes) lets us examine the dynamics of racism and personal integrity.
Oh...'to kill a mocking bird' that book haunted me throughout my highschool.
