To Kill A Mockingbird Chapter 1-3

At Lee there are not many issues that I have observed to speak of. However, as always, there is one; the lack of women speakers at chapel services and other public events, such as open lectures. As a woman it is crucial for me and my fellow female peers to have a person who can relate to our specific struggles, up on the stage. This lets us know that we are respected and that we are heard in our communities. Without proper representation misunderstandings can occur. Women bring valuable perspectives to different concepts of the bible. Many of which are not spoken simply because the men preaching would not think of because they are men. Fortunately, Lee is phenomenal at recognizing problems and addressing them as effectively as is humanly

Huck and Tom decided that they needed to plan out, on how to save Jim. Tom talks about how rescuing Jim is too easy, since his uncle trusts everyone on his farm. He tells Huck that there is more honor in having more difficulties, so he wants to add them himself. Huck is surprised to hear this and questions Tom. Tom then talks about what else they will need on their escape. He wants to do everything the harder way. After talking, Tom decides that Jim should cut off his leg to escape, because that how people in the book did it. Huck refuses to listen to his ideas. Tom also wants to give Jim a shirt, and tell him to make a pencil, and write on a journal on the fabric. He advises that jim used his own blood as ink. Huck still refuses to let Jim do any of what he is saying. The two

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.

    Another way of showing the destruction of innocence is when Scout realizes that Boo Radley was not crazy, but has given them gifts in the knot hole in the tree, blankets on cold nights and folded their clothes on a fence “Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a pair of good-luck pennies, and our lives” (Lee 171).

“Hansel was ten and his sister, Gretel, was eleven when their stepmother decided to get rid of them. They didn’t catch on at first, because Hagmom (their secret name for her) had always hated them. So leaving them behind at the supermarket or forgetting to pick them up after school was no big deal.

#1 They went to Radley’s window that night because they knew Atticus wouldn’t notice them leave and it was the last day of summer, so if they died at least they would miss school.

In chapter 1 it is about how introduces people like windrider, Uncle brightstar, Handclap White deer Lefty Mrs whitlaw Robin Black dog, and the main character moon shadow.

The scene I decided to paint for my project about the book To Kill A Mockingbird is the scene where Miss Maudie’s house catches fire. I chose this scene because there is an important moment that happens which lets the reader know more about Boo Radley’s personality. This scene sheds light on Boo Radley’s real nature, which is the opposite of what the neighbors rumors say. During the fire, while Scout and Jem are outside Scout begins to feel cold, especially since the setting was in the middle of the night in winter. When the fire is over, Atticus begins to scold Scout and Jem for leaving his designated spot.

On 2/27/2018 at 1:50pm, DHR worker Bridgette Dix and DHR intern Danielle Long visited a middle school in Banks, AL to investigate a call that the department received concerning a 13 year old girl named Meradith Holcomb. Upon arriving to the school, both the DHR worker and intern are welcomed into a room by the school’s counselor. In the room sat Ms. Laura Parsons who had also been called to the school with concerns for the student. As the worker and intern sat down, the counselor put down a stack of papers informing everyone that there was some disturbing info in it that needed to be read. In the stack of papers, Bridgette, Ms. Parsons, and intern Danielle discovered that the 13 year old had written a very explicit novel about two homosexual men as well as wrote notes

Mrs. Dubose dies from morphine only a little over a month after Jem destroyed her flowers and then spent a month reading to her. Dill does not come to Maycomb for the summer but he sends a letter explaining about his new dad and how he has to stay in Meridian because they were going to build a boat. Calpurnia takes Jem and Scout to her church, the First Purchase, which one lady gets upset about since Jem and Scout are white folk. Aunt Alexandra moved to help out Atticus with kids and stuff since it’s almost summer. Dill runs away from home and comes to Maycomb and stays with Jem and Scout.

Atticus assuaged the accusation made against Tom Robinson. The taciturn child sat alone at the trial. The man’s repertoire consisted only of farming.

Chapter 10 begins with Barrymore being mad at Sir Henry and Watson for hunting down Selden. Barrymore begs the two to let him go just until they get him on a boat to South America. They agree to leave Selden alone and Barrymore is grateful and wishes to do something in return for Sir. Henry. Barrymore had been keeping something about Sir. Charles death. The morning of his death, Barrymore noticed that he received a letter from a nearby town called Coombe Tracey. The letter has a women's writing on it. A few weeks ago before Sir. Charles death, while he was cleaning out the fireplace of Sir. Charles study, he found the charred pieces of the letter. He was able to read the final line " Please, please as you are a gentlemen, burn this

Chapter 13 begins with the exoneration of Walter, which later the news media was quick to interview him. He was released and found innocent but many still think that he was still guilty. Bryan and Walter went around to legal conferences sharing his experiences. Walter would sometimes share with Bryan that the guys that he had met in the row were like friends to him. He also said that he never thought he would be so against capital punishment until he had encountered it himself. As much as people had celebrated his release there were also people that didn’t believe that he was innocent and some even sent him death threats. He moved to Florida for a couple of months, but soon returned to Monroe County and bought a trailer where he returned to his logging business. Stevenson and Walter had planned on filing a civil lawsuit for his wrongful prosecution soon after, but in many states people who are released from prison after proven innocent don’t usually get any compensation and Walter was not an exception. Walter soon suffered an injury from his logging business that left him unable to continue his business, so he started up a junk business

In the first half of how to kill a mockingbird there is a lot of confusion and a lot of different things talked about. But I think that this first chapter is about “not discriminating against others¨, or as atticus puts it on judge someone tell you have walked in the skin¨. And I have found three areas where that is supported by the text. Not only do they agree with my theme, but I think it will agree with everyone's theme.

Scout and her friends are immensely suspicious of the Radley place. They are unsure as to whether or not Boo Radley still lives in the house. They are almost caught peering through the window of the Radley house in hope that they would see Boo Radley. Scout described how “the roar of a shotgun shattered the neighborhood(Lee 53).” Therefore, the fact that they were shot at should discourage them from going back. Meanwhile, they begin to find objects in a knothole of a tree
