My Overall Thoughts on To Kill a Mockingbird

We have just started section 2 for To Kill a Mockingbird, and there is so much to talk about. there are so many different characters, that come from different social, religious, cultural, and economical backgrounds. However, they might not come together as a community, they come together in this book. From the Ewells, to the Finches. to the Radleys to the Robinson's. They are all together in this book. Now my favorite character by far is, Calpernia. She is to me the one who has pure courage. She stands up for what is right. for example, she stands up for scout and Jem when they are at church saying that these are her children. She also tell scout, the most important life lesson, is that you should not judge someone, by how they look, by their background, or what others are saying about them. To me this is the biggest life lesson that someone can even developed. This teaches them them not to be ignorant towards others. Calpernia has been able to not think of what others say about people. For example, when scout asked if Mr.Radley was stuffed in his chimney, Cal, told her not to believe everything that scout hears from the people of Maycomb, because most of it is untrue. If scout really wanted to know if Aurthur was really alive, then she should just go and knock on the door. Calpernia, is a very important character, and I think that we will be seeing more of her in section 2. I think this, because Cal is usually the first person goes to to ask a question about something. Like she asked Cal what rape was. this a way that we as readers will know just how Scout will lose her childhood innocents.
