    I believe in judging someone by their actions and character rather than by the color of their skin and sexuality. This I believe because there is good and bad in all of us. The color of our skin does not depict the flaws we have. In the second amendment it states that all men are created equal, but we still do not treat each other equally. Defending Tom Robinson was not easy because I knew that from the minute Mayella opened her mouth Tom was a dead man. But everyone including a black man deserves a second chance. How could I ever tell my own children “You never really understand a person until you consider things from their point of view - until you climb into his skin and walk around in it” if I didn’t pick up Tom’s case because I was afraid of what people would think of me. When people say things about me like “Atticus Finch is the same in his house as he is on the public streets” why would I prove them wrong? You are only as good as you portray yourself to be. But when you are a black man in the town of Maycomb, Alabama you were never dealt the good hand to begin with. Sadly Tom never got a second chance. Tom was a good man but because of the color of his skin he was not treated as fairly as the rest of us.…

    First of all, Rose and Troy had a nice family. They had a son together and she always said she wanted a “whole family”. As we know Troy already had a son (Lyons), but that was before Rose met Troy. Even though Rose dislikes things Troy does she still loves him. She wouldn’t say anything about that situation. For example, “She recognizes Troy’s spirit as a fine and illuminating one and she either ignores or forgives his faults, only some of which she recognizes”. Rose didn’t have a paying job, but she always kept the house together and always cooked. Rose said,” I’m cooking up some chicken. I got some chicken and collard greens (pg6).” She was a normal house wife.…

Through anecdotes and flashbacks Calum is revealed to be a multifaceted character whose downfall comes from misplaced trust in a stranger who would ultimately betray him.
