People will never reach true racial and social equality. “I see no changes, all I see is racist faces misplaced hate makes disgrace to race”-Tupac Shakur (Clever). Segregation has and always will be a big part in U.S. history. I assume you have heard or maybe seen something on television that involves racial segregation.

Bob Ewell was actually the one who raped his own daughter. In my opinion, that’s sickening that you judge someone by the color of their skin (Lee, Ch 17-25
