    To Kill A Mockingbird Persuasive Essay

    This case brings up mainly the issue of race but also shows how the community is divided between the traditional south and the future of the south. People like Miss Dubose and Miss Merriweather are stuck in the old south, while people like Atticus and his children; bring forward new racial ideas about equality. Atticus forces people to be accountable for their decisions. This is best exemplified through the lynch mob. Atticus goes to the jail that night is to protect Tom Robinson so the mob does not kill him. This is illustrated through their disguise of “cold” weather clothing and drunken state. This clan of men represents the opinion of the community about the trial. These planned racist actions are averted by Scout’s innocent questioning. Scout picks a man out of the mob and isolates him by calling on him, which makes Mr. Cunningham realize his erroneous actions. She starts to talk about his son, Walter, and his entailment and this causes Mr. Cunningham to empathize with Atticus. Mr. Cunningham realizes that Atticus is helping Tom just like Atticus is helping him. In this realization, the mob departs. This later affects the verdict of the jury because a Cunningham is left to make a decision. This is a sign for a possible change. Mr. Cunningham and the citizens are affected by Atticus’s decision to defend a black…
