genus genus genus Atticus Finch is a man who fought for what he bankd in. He stood up for what hethought was right not what the recess of the township thought.

The town new that the Ewells were a bunch of liars, but they couldnt chose ablack man over a whit man, so Miss Maudie is saying someday they will.
