The events that happened in the 1930’s greatly affected many different families. Some families were so poor that they could not even provide enough food, clothing, or shelter for themselves and their family. Which is why the Cunningham’s never accept offerings from others. On pages 25-26, Walter Cunningham does not take money for lunch from Miss Caroline because he knows he will not be able to repay her. Also on page 27, we learn that Mr. Cunningham has to repay Atticus by bringing him different supplies, not in money. Furthermore, during the 1930’s there was also a major battle of the races which greatly affects the Finch’s. Atticus takes the black man, Tom Robinson’s case upon himself, which greatly affects Jem, Scout, and himself. On page
