Midst the Great Depression criticism was at a high and To Kill a Mockingbird shows this with three characters. Tom Robinson was an innocent African American who ended up being convicted of a crime because of his race. Mr. Dolphus Raymond was a Caucasian who was judged by others just because of his feelings for an African American. Calpurnia was a intelligent negro who wasn’t allowed to spend time with her bosses white children because of her color. Harper Lee displays that racism was a serious problem in the 1930’s and needed to be eliminated.
