How Harper Lee explores the theme of prejudice in the novel To kill a mockingbird? Harper Lee explores the theme of prejudice in her novel, set in a small town called Maycomb. Maycomb County was, and still is, situated in the state of Alabama. Alabama is a state of The United States of America. 'To kill a mockingbird'. What does this mean and in what ways are they shown in the novel? It is a sin to kill a mockingbird because it does not do any harm or faults to a person, but just sing its heart out to them people. The voice of a mockingbird is a 'sweet' voice and they sing songs. It is like killing someone or something that is innocent and hasn't done anything to harm. This does take place in this novel by Harper Lee. The story is based on mixed cultures and how the people of Maycomb county react to the situations happening in their county and their views about it and on the whole of society. This story was set in the times of the 1930's but was written by Harper Lee in the 1960's. There are different ways of showing that a person is prejudiced. In Maycomb, people stick or stay put to their views about other people. You can show prejudice to someone by race, class, gender, wealth, sex and in the other smallest possible ways. These ways of prejudice are all shown in Maycomb County. The main point is that the white coloured people give racial comments or abuse to the black coloured people who are part of the same community. In the in 1930's, the whites where much more higher in all aspects. This is because the blacks were kept as low-paid workers and were lower classed than the white community. The blacks were treated in the worst manner or possible way a whit man could treat a black person. In Mayco... ...in the southern countries of America. There are signs in America that changes are taking place and developing. People had begun to recognize that blacks should be allowed to live equally. Hopes of changes are shown because Mr. Underwood was a racist person but in his editorial he thought it to being the 'senseless killing and slaughter of children'. The jury took longer than usual to make their decision showing changes and that Mr. Cunningham tried to influence the jury to let Tom Robinson free and keep him and innocent man when Mr. Cunningham himself was a part of the Lynch mob who wanted to hang Tom Robinson after he was put into the county jail. These are the hopes that are evidently showing and appearing in the county. Aunt Alexandra also starts to change and care more for the children. These are the changes that are taking place in Maycomb County.
