Atticus looked shocked and directed Jeeremy to take the kids back home. But the children refused to leave until a burly man grabbed Jeremy off his feet demanding he would take him home. Jean Louise ran up and kicked the burly man in the knee and left him falling back in real pain. The crowd was raging with anger and gave Atticus threats for the children to leave at once.

Resident Interview. After finding out that Tom Robinson is guilty I’ve interviewed his attorney, Atticus Finch. Reporter: Why did you defend Tom Robinson? Atticus: I knew it was the right thing to do. Reporter: Do you think you lost the case because Tom Robinson is a Negro? Atticus: yes, but it doesn’t matter what race you are because Thomas Jefferson once said that all men are created equal. Reporter: Do you feel like a threat to the white people? Atticus: I most certainly do, but I don’t understand why it’s such a big deal to defend him. Reporter: Did you think that you should have won the case? Atticus: Yessum, but other cases like Tom Robinson's were accounted guilty hundreds of years before us but you can always try to win. Reporter: Are you going to keep on defending other Negroes like Tom Robinson? Atticus: Yes, I think everyone has a chance and I’m going to keep on defending them until they all know what’s right. Reporter: In the Future do you think you will win other cases like Tom Robinson’s? Atticus: You’ll never know but it’s no reason not to try to win.

editorial. on kkk

“My opinion on the Ku Klux Klan is that they are a bunch of ignorant fools.” This was a statement stated by Calpurnia. The KKK, originally a social fraternity, was organized in Pulaski, Tennessee in 1866. In 1915, the second KKK era began. This Time, the klan was able to spread. Like the Previous klan, they sometimes used violence To achieve their objective.

In the late 1940’s, the klan again resurfaced. However, the organization encountered trouble As states began banning its formation. By The 1960’s, as the civil rights movement was Emerging, the klan’s membership reached Almost twenty thousand. By the end of the 1960’s, the klan’s membership declined again. The klan still exists today, but it is in the low Thousands.

Calpurnia decides to take the children to her “colored” church Sunday. Lula, criticizes Calpurnia for bringing white children to church, but everyone else is generally friendly, and Reverend Sykes welcomes them. The church has no money for hyms, and few of the others can read, so they sing by echoing the words. During the service, Reverend Sykes takes up a collection for Tom Robinson’s wife, Helen, who can’t find work now that her husband has been accused of rape. After the service, Scout learns that Tom Robinson has been accused by Bob Ewell and cannot understand why anyone would believe the this man.

Lawyer Atticus Finch at Courthouse, Defending Negro.

Our very own lawyer Atticus Finch is currently at the courthouse defending his client, Tom Robinson, on a rape and batery charge against Mayella Ewell. Bob Ewell had said this statement on the stand about Tom Robinson, “ I seen that black nigger yonder ruttin’ on my Mayella!” This comment offended the judge, he advised all women and children to leave the courtroom at once. Tom Robinson was found guilty of this charge. But many belive that Bob Ewell, (Mayella’s father) had done this horrible thing to her. After the court was cleared out I spoke with Atticus a few moments in what he had to say about the case. “I believe that Tom should have his justice, and Bob Ewell be put in jail.” I also had a few moments to speak with Tom as well,  “I thank everyone who believed in me, and I also want to thank Atticus in trying to serve me justice.”  I tried to talk with Judge Taylor but he had no comment on the case at all. Reverend Sykes of the African American Church spoke his mind after the case, he believes that Tom did not do this, and Tom would never do this to his wife Helen and his kids.
