Dialectical Journal For To Kill A Mockingbird

"Permanent remorse about failing to do your human duty, in my opinion, can be worse than losing your life," Miep Gies has stated. Mr. Walter Cunningham, seen as poor, but respectful in the book, To Kill a Mockingbird, invades Maycomb's town prison, drunk and armed, aiming to kill Tom Robinson, a black man falsely accused of rape, along with multiple individuals supporting him. They approach Atticus, currently defending Tom Robinson, and threatens to kill him if he refuses to allow the group to slaughter Tom Robinson. Atticus asks politely for them to turn back and to go home, which they harshly decline. As Atticus slowly nears his death, Scout, Atticus's young daughter, appears, surprising all individuals present in the situation.

The twin Moons Glowed red this night, rain pored down in crimson hues, denotements of a deplorable omen on this planet. A single Mandalorian scout was running from a pack of shistavanen as they were stalking about the wet lands laughing, "Run…” growled one of the wolf like men. “Run all you optate meat, we can do this all night." Yelled another, “scum, they verbalize.” Raising his left hand up to his helmet “scum… me” he tapped several buttons into a transceiver built in the armor piece.

Journal #4 I am reading To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee and I am on page 304. This book is about a girl named Scout that lives with her brother Jem, her friend Dill, her father Atticus, and her housekeeper Calpurnia.

Question 1:- IF is a beautiful poem written by Rudyard Kipling. IF is inspiring and motivating. The poem gives a lesson on how one should live his/her life and overcome the challenges and adversities of life.

I truly believe Atticus chose the right decision to stand by Tom Robinson and defend his innocence. Even though so many disagreed with the decision he didn’t let their opinions affect his own thoughts. He was very committed to racial equality and wasn’t afraid to show it. This shows that Atticus is a good person and won't let anybody take that characteristic of his

Ewell then says he will get revenge on Atticus. A while later, tell Scout and her aunt that Tom Robinson was killed because he tried to escapee the prison by climbing over the

After hours of waiting, the jury came back in. Scout explains how “A jury never looks at the defendant if it has convicted, and when this jury came in, not one of them looked at Tom Robinson… Judge Taylor was polling the jury; ‘ Guilty...Guilty...Guilty’”(211) When Scout and Jem hear the verdict, they are distraught. As they were walking home, “It was Jem’s turn to cry.. ‘It’s not right, Atticus’”(212)

Our whole lives growing up we are told to follow the “Golden Rule”. This rule is defined as to treat someone the way you want to be treated. In the book To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, Atticus Finch a lawyer in a town called Maycomb in Alabama tries his best to be a role model for his two children. In the quiet town of Maycomb Atticus is given the job to defend a black man named Tom Robinson. Atticus wants to teach his kids Jem and Scout life lessons at an early age so they grow up as respectable people.

The day before the trial, Tom is brought back to Maycomb and is placed in a jailhouse. That same night, Atticus is visited by Sherriff Tate who expresses his concern of bringing Tom back because he fears that the men who oppose of the trial, might try to do something to Tom. Atticus later then asks Calpurnia to watch over the kids, but curiosity gets the better of them, so they

During the trial, Jem remains confident that Atticus would win the trial and Tom’s life would revert back to normal, so Jem asserts, “but don’t fret, we’ve won it,” he said wisely. “Don’t see how any jury could convict what we heard” (279). Although the quote demonstrates

“A man’s skin color has no more significance as his eye color” (Haile Selassie I). Every town has a disease, whether it 's racism, poverty or crime. In “To Kill A Mockingbird” their disease is racism. Racism consumes and blinds the people of Maycomb. In Harper Lee 's novel “To Kill A Mockingbird”, the readers follow Scout Finch, a nine year old girl that has not been infected by the disease but is heavily influenced.

Every person on this planet has the ability to make choices. People have been created with minds to convince, control, and problem solve. Similarly, other people’s influence has great power to change, persuade, and spread rumors. The novel To Kill a Mockingbird written by Harper Lee, portrays many examples of people who were persuaded and changed from his or her own mind and decisions, or the effect of someone else’s. Injustice is rampant throughout the book, in Tom Robinson’s verdict, Boo Radley’s precarious situation, and with Scout’s situation at school.
