He plays video games he must be a loser and it’s not like he really going anywhere in life. This might be true but at the same time it might not. Take Mr. Jordan for example, he is a very successful teacher and he LOVES to play video games. Saying things like this is jumping to unfair conclusion. This is being prejudice to everyone who plays video game. Being prejudice is a very common theme in the book “To Kill A Mockingbird” By Harper Lee. For example when the boys didn’t even give Boo Radley a chance, or when the whole town turned against Atticus and his family. Another example is when Aunt Alexandra told Scout she couldn’t have Walter Cunningham over because he was poor white trash. The people of Maycomb have a thing for unfairly and unrightfully judging Atticus.
There are any examples of people being prejudice. Throughout the town of Maycomb, Boo Radley is known as a “monster” …show more content…
Walter Cunningham is a boy who lives in Maycomb. His family doesn’t really have money there for they are judged pretty harshly. When Scout tries to invite Walter over for lunch, Aunt Alexandra says “I’ll tell you why” she said “He’s trash, that why you can’t play with him” (225). Aunt Alexandra most likely came from a very good family line because they seem pretty well off. Because of her heritage she and her family believed that they are better than everyone else. As a result of this Aunt Alexandra really upsets Scout. I’m sure it wasn’t on purpose however Scout was not very happy with her Aunt. Jem attempted to calm her down but it didn’t really work. Scout even says “She doesn’t like me, that’s all there is too it” (225). Scout feels hated by her aunt. But wouldn’t you? Aunt Alexandra corrects her on every single thing that she does. Aunt Alexandra doesn’t give Scout or Walter a chance to prove themselves she just jumps to an unfair not right
