On August 9, 2014,a young man by the name of Michael Brown was shot and killed by a police officer. It is little known why the shooting occurred, but the boy was unarmed.This could be one of many cases of modern day racism and segregation. In 1930, “even after the abolishment of slavery in 1865, blacks were still almost powerless(BBC 2)”.Blacks were heavily segregated and had almost no rights.Many cases of segregation in the 1930s caused a lot of current day racial tension in the united states.

In Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird,” Scout, or Jean Louise Finch, is the main character, she is a very intelligent young girl who loves to solve her problems with fist fights. Scout has two close friends, one of them is her older brother Jem, or Jeremy Atticus Finch, and the other is Dill whose full name is Charles Baker Harris. These two characters become her allies, for they get into trouble with her as well as helping her with her problems, such as getting out of trouble. I believe the main idea in this story is about Scout and how she chooses to deal with her problems, or bumps in her journey that are either because she is a girl or because she has the ability to read. The time period in which this story takes place is around the 1900’s.

Jean Louise ‘Scout’ Finch is the main character in Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird and is the narrator of the story. She starts the novel at the age of six, and over the course of the novel, grows to be nine. Racism affects Scout throughout the story mainly because of her father, Atticus Finch, being involved with defending a black man in court that was accused of raping a white woman. Scout also resides in a small Alabama town called Maycomb. This also leads to much prejudice throughout the book.

Dill returns to Meridan for the school year, and Jean begins to think about starting first grade. Her first day of school is not what she thought first grade would be like. Her teacher, Miss Caroline Fisher is a new teacher, and is new to Maycomb. Miss Caroline offers Walter, a poor boy, lunch money, but Walter declines because his family cannot pay her back. Jean is punished because she tells Miss Caroline this instead of Walter.

The purpose of the passage with Dolphus Raymond was to show the effects that prejudice can have on individuals as well as the community.

The story begins as Scout describes her family history and her town, Maycomb during the time of the Great Depression. Atticus is a prominent lawyer and the Finch family is reasonably well off in comparison to the rest of society. She and her brother, Jem, meet Dill, who has come to live in their neighborhood for the summer, and the children share stories and fantasies about the mystery man who lives near by. The man’s name is Arthur, or Boo, Radley. The house
