In Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird, the atmosphere of discrimination normalizes the use of slurs, and the ostracization of certain members of the community, for the children in the novel. To Kill A Mockingbird, written in 1960, set in the fictitious town of Maycomb, Alabama. This novel, from the perspective of the character Scout, is a tale of identity, injustice, and inequality in a time of heavy discrimination.

This quotation quite literally means that when someone does something, they do not realize how it affects the person unless they experience it themselves.

The mob that night was filled with regular people Atticus and the children saw on a daily basis, but there they were not themselves. Scout snapped them back into reality and let them know they were not doing the right thing. The use of wild animals symbolizing the mob truly showcases how strange they were acting due to a single court case. To me, the deeper meaning is that sometimes people do not do the correct thing and it makes them seem like animals, yet at the end of the day they are just like us.

William Godwin lives his life by the meaningful quote he wrote, “No man knows the value of innocence and integrity but he who has lost them.” A variety of characters in the eye opening novel, “To Kill a Mockingbird”, can deeply connect to this quote.
