When will the Left ban "To Kill a Mockingbird" from the classroom as they have done with "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Finn"?

There is no apology for rape but it is an evolutionary biological reality. Much actual human procreation has resulted from this act and some degree of rape is probably responsible for the existence of the majority of today’s humans rather than the voluntary mutually agreed copulations that are now favored.

I’ve read it every year with my juniors, but now with Common Core it’s considered an eighth grade novel. It’s actually an extremely conservative book. Perhaps the left is just now catching on.

His black client didn’t rape anyone. The rapist was a white trash guy who then tried to murder Atticus’ children..............This ‘professor’ obviously hasn’t read the book...................

Perhaps my favorite film (I last read the book about 50 years ago).There was no rape...not even anything that Whoppi Goldberg would call a rape.An ordinary,unassuming black guy made the mistake of helping and,worse still,feeling sorry for,a young white girl who was quite immature and who,more importantly,had a father who was a filthy,worthless piece of excrement.
Apologist? What a foolish thing to say.

TKaMB is as fine a novel as I have ever read and we should all be so courageous as the Atticus Finch character.

The Liberal’s dilemma: which aggrieved social group takes precedence over the other and how is it to be determined? Downtrodden Blacks or perpetually abused women?

In the story, I thought Tom Robinson was innocent of the crime he was accused of. How then could his lawyer be an “apologist” for rape?
