  Racism always exists. Through this novel, students are hoped to be able to extract the moral of the story that racism is bad.

  Hello the great publisher for learners;

  I really like the website in general. The way you help English learners are awesome, and it is voluntary.

  The essay is easy to follow, it helped me to check my spelling. I prefer to have the answer in some indirect way by using synonyms instead of direct following.

  Thanks.

  I’ve also read the novel and watched the movie (starring Gregory Peck as Atticus and Mary Badham as Scout). The book and movie are worthwhile reading and seeing. Not only was the movie an Oscar winner (3 awards); the book itself won a Pulitzer in 1961, and has become one of the most widely read books in U.S. schools. Because of its theme and content, the book attracted quite a lot of controversy, with some school boards trying to ban it in their jurisdictions. The irony is that, even several years later, the character Atticus Finch became venerated by the legal profession as a sort of national hero. There is even a monument built to honor him.

  I watched a similar movie long ago, it had as actors to Samuel L. Jackson and Matthew McConaughey, the name of the movie is time for killing also was kevin spacey. Mattew was a defence layer and Samuel was accused for murdering white man who raped his dauther, kevin spacey was a witness.
  I don´t know how, but just now, I rememmber that to kill a Mockingbird is movie named in spanish: Como matar a un Ruiseñor.

  I read it in Italian language many years ago but this novel represents very well how racism has to be defeated once and for all: it’s not possible to live in a world full of racism, hate against people of other religions, races, but also against Jewishes.

  Albert Einstein, which was a famous scientist born in Germany in 1879 from a German family of Jewish religion, in the month of october 1933 was forced to emigrate from Germany when Hitler with his racial laws started a period full of hate against Jewishes of all the world and became a world danger, to the USA, once arrived there met the American policemen that asked him of what race he was: Einstein answered that he wasn’t of no race, he only belonged to the human race.

  His words now much more than in the simple past, have to teach to everyone of us that only defeating racism and hate against everybody that we consider different from us we will able to live in a better world.

  Very beautiful and interesting topic, well done.
