Chapters 20-24
To Kill a Mockingbird
1. End of Chapter 21
"I looked around. They were standing. All around us and the balcony on the opposite wall, the Negroes were getting to their feet. Reverend Syke's voice was as distant as Judge Taylor's: 'Miss Jean Louise, stand up. Your father's passin'.'"
2. I chose this quote because it shows how much the black community respects Atticus for doing what he did, defending Tom Robinson. They all respect him for defending a social outcast, someone that was viewed as not even a human being.
3. I think that the black community will never forget this act of kindness that Atticus showed for Tom Robinson. I also think that if any misfortune comes to the Finch family, the black community will be there to help them and lend them a hand.
Questions:
1. Atticus did a very kind thing in defending Tom Robinson, but some folks of Maycomb didn't like what he was doing. Do you think anything is going to happen to Atticus? What?
2. How do you think the story is going to end?

Questions
1. I personally don't think anything will happen to him just because everyone knows that he has a lot of friends. The black community and everyone in his neighborhood including the sheriff. So everyone knows if someone did something to Atticus that person would for sure get punished, either by a just cause or by a under the table "accident".
2. I think it will end just like normal stories end. All the bad guys in jail, all the good guys living well, and all the shy people becoming social. So I think that Boo will finally get out of his house and maybe make friends with Scout and Jem.
Quote
I don't think that Tom Robinson is a social outcast, as you refer to him as, because there can be a lot of different "socials" maybe to the white people he is a social out cast but to the black community and their own "social" he isn't a out cast.
