To Kill A Mockingbird Representation Write Up (12-20)

The most important event in these eight chapters, and perhaps the entire book, is the trial of Tom Robinson. Raising important questions about equality, racism, and the role that prejudice plays in the justice system, the trial is important for many key characters in the book and readers today. I chose an image that represents an important saying in court, ‘justice is blind’, because that though it is important for justice to be blind it often is not. This was the case both in Tom Robinson’s trial and in many real historical and modern day court cases.
