Morrison- Ch 19-21 Summarizer
The settings of the story is in Maycomb, Alabama during a hard time for the town there are alot of controversy's going on and a lot of social morals are being questioned for the kids. Some of the most important events are when the lynch mob comes to get Robinson but Atticus was there and kind of stalled but it was Scout who really stopped them by talking to one of the guys about his son and normal things about the day. Another important event is the trial. The reason why the trial is important is because it shows how the society acts towards African Americans when it comes down to it, and how most whites looked down on them even though times were changing. The trial also shows how Atticus is a good Lawyer and how he acts towards the jury and the witnesses on the stand, during this time it also shows what kind of man he is. These events help the plot develop by showing what kind of people they are really and how they view African Americans in any situation. These events also bring in some tones and moods of fear, excitement, and love. The reason why i say love is because Scout has seen her dad at work and now has a better understanding of why people view him they way that they do.
