Kill A Mockingbird Group Of Men
699 words
If a person today is asked to do something that he
or she may not like to do and they say no, they
may be looked down upon. Not only does this happen
today, but it also was true in the early 1900 s.
It is just not fair when people stand up for what
their mind feels is right, such as Atticus does in
the novel To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee,

for what is right throughout the novel. One night

Mockingbird this same sort of question was come

be observant of the forms required for good
breeding. It can also be a means to the needs and
affairs of the general public. However, the latter
of the two definitions can also be stretched to
include a definition of the private rights and the
remedies sought by action or suit. The point is
