I ended hp missing the book due to being sick in school (did a makeup assignment) but now that I know what it is about, it should not be scrutinized for the time it was written in as it perfectly shows as you said, where things were and how far they have gotten. Is not racism still the enemy of the book?

This is why I like the Warner Bros approach to old stuff. Disclaimer at the front that it was made in a different time with different morals, and now that we can all agree it was bad, we're mature enough to recognize that any censorship of it is no better than lying about the past. Normal American people used to be racist, key phrase "used to." Similarly, some people don't even notice or care, especially with children where it flies way over their heads (or at least mine) because you don't GET the subtext until you're an adult and learn about it. There isn't some bulletin over the screen during the Jim Crow gang Dumbo scene saying that black folks are odd, it's just a bunch of cartoon crows havin' a laugh and making an amazingly punny musical number. [Racial Stereotypes] in Looney Tunes aren't brainwashing kids into being racist, a lot of them just see a silly caricature with a funny accent no more different than Yosemite Sam or Porky Pig. And we can STILL have Daffy Duck whack Hitler over the head with a mallet! It took me SO MANY YEARS to learn who that random guy at the end of that cartoon was!

Maybe I'm missing some cultural context, not being American, so this story isn't really known over here so based just on what I hear here, but why is it considered "problematic" and against modern sensibilities if it's portraying the racist mob as the clear bad guys? Even if the slurs are used, isn't it in the context of portraying it as a bad thing?

One of the best aspects of the book is outside of plot or message. It’s the use of language. How a person structures their language is how that person structures their thoughts. From page one the reader is immersed in the mindset and outlook of Scout,and by extension her culture, through what she chooses to say and how she chooses to say it.

My mom taught this book for over a decade in an 8th grade reading class. I think something important to know about the book is the context of it's sequel, set in a future where Atticus Finch is an old man with incredibly racist views, that Scout, now grown, has to confront. Its a cool example of how characters can undergo significant negative character development, even if they were basically heroic figures in their original story.

To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my favorites and it's the book that made me love literature. It was sad that Tom died but it also taught me so much and I changed my perspective of both people and the the society we had and lived in. That one book gave me more life lessons than all the people in my life 😂

Oh, we're going this route now. I wonder what your thoughts are on A Time To Kill, both the book and movie as it was inspired by To Kill A Mockingbird. That closing argument always gets me choked up...

I really don't get why people judge works of literature of past years from modern perspectives and moralities.

I had read somewhere recently that this book was starting to disappear from our nations library’s. Any truth to this?
