To Kill a Mocking Bird Outline
General Statement and Thesis: Harper Lee 's novel To Kill a Mockingbird establishes the theme of intolerance through the characters of Mr. Dolphus, Arthur Radley, Atticus, Scout, and the Ewells in Maycomb County.

Elaboration: "I cannot pity her... she tried to put the evidence of her offense away from her... from this world" (Lee. page 272). The statement above from the closing remarks demonstrates the amount of respect that Atticus has lost for a woman like Mayella for being so selfish.
Evidence #3: The children of Bob Ewell have done nothing wrong to be in-tolerated but because they were raised with no proper influences, the children are ridiculed for their obliviousness. "There 's the ordinary kind like us and the neighbors ... the Cunninghams out in the woods, the Ewells down at the dump, and the Negroes."
