Intro:Have you ever heard the word prejudice?Prejudice is an opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience.In the book To KIll a Mockingbird their is alot of racism and prejudice,some people belive that the book is not a good piece of literature I belive the opposite and I will tell you why. To Kill a Mockingbird is good literature because I believe that it successfully impacted me emotionally,also that the content is very believable.During the time the book was published racism against blacks was very common and was more popular than it is now.
Body par.#1 The content in the book is very believable because during the time the book was published there was a lot of racism and the word nigger was a very popular word for people to say.I can also believe that Mayella tried to seduce Tom because of the way her father treats her,if she is grown up being abused than all she knows is sex.Her father abused her so she saw Tom and wanted to have sex with someone other than her father.It’s also very believable because she used a good reason to make Tom go into her house,I can believable that she would give Tom a job because a lot of blacks back then didn’t want to start any trouble so they did what they were told.I believe that this could have happened somewhere in the south.
