I loved the movie, can’t remember the book, but I read it. I am tired, though, of being constantly reminded of that era. THAT is why this book is such a big deal in America - it is used as a hammer to remind of us of how evil white people are. It gets tiring.
I think there are a lot of books where the message is that white people are evil. I don’t think the message is that for “To Kill a Mockingbird”. Certainly not all white people in the book were painted as evil.
