[Insert title here]Helen Keller, a deaf and blind writer and lecturer, describes life as "a succession of lessons that must be understood." A person will always continue to learn lessons throughout his life that will stay with him forever. In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee describes Jean Louise "Scout" Finch's struggle against prejudice and injustice during the Great Depression and how she and her brother Jem learn valuable lessons from the people of Maycomb. They learn not to judge someone before considering their experiences, to assist innocent people instead of attacking them, and to have the determination to do what is morally right. Scout's father, Atticus, teaches them not to draw conclusions about someone based on their opinions. appearance and behavior. He says that “You are never truly under a person until you get under their skin and walk in it” (30). Dolphus Raymond is an example of someone who is misunderstood because he seems to enjoy the company of African Americans and also marries an African American woman and has mixed race children. There are also rumors that he drinks alcohol a lot. These aspects of his personality lead people to think he is crazy. However, when Scout, Jem, and their friend Dill meet him, they find him kind, understanding, and understanding. Raymond comforts Dill and tells him that he is too young to understand why people are so cruel. They also find out that the reason for his drinking is that he wants to fit in and this gives people an explanation for his behavior. The children learn the lesson their father wants them to learn: people are not always what they seem. The Cunninghams are also judged on their actions and status. They… midway through the paper… demands his physical safety and his reputation to do what he thinks is right. As Scout and Jem get older, they become braver. One night, when they sneak into the prison and find Atticus in front of an angry mob, Atticus tells Jem to take Scout home, but for the first time in his life, Jem disobeys Atticus and staunchly refuses. Scout also overcomes her fear and kicks another man to defend her father. Even though these actions are senseless, they show that children are maturing. Over the course of the novel, Lee shows how Scout and Jem learn to respect everyone, to refrain from attacking others based on physical appearance, and to have the courage to make things right. As they gain experience, they will use these lessons to be more successful in the future and set an example for everyone on how to understand other people and become a better person overall.
