The short novel 'To Kill A Mockingbird' was/is an intense story of a seduced negro way, back with segregation, and white lawyer getting vilified for defending him. Best line..."then I saw him rutting on my May Ella."
Forgot who wrote it.
Harper Lee.
I like this quote:
I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It’s when you know you’re licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do. ~Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapter 11, spoken by the character Atticus
