Went to the big city and got turned into a lesbian.
Just one thing...Atticus Finch IS NOT REAL.
Wow, it’s been a shock to liberals, that Atticus is not as liberal across the board as they thought.
How many liberals named their child Atticus after Atticus Finch in Mockingbird? Maybe you should not name your child after fictional characters in books and movies???
The order is important. She published the politically correct story.
In other news, Rhett Butler has been shown waving a Confederate Flag.
People are SHOCKED that Clark Gable would conscience such a thing!/s
(Fictional Characters do fictional things in fictional setting with fictional motives)
Hey, does this mean we can bring back the Confederate Flag?
(couldn’t resist)
Read "To Kill A Mockingbird". There is nothing in that book that gives any clue on what Atticus Finch might have believed on integration and Jim Crow in the 1930's. There is nothing that indicates he changed over the 20 years between the periods the books covered.
Got my copy of "Go Set A Watchman" yesteday. Re-reading "To Kill A Mockingbird" for the umpteenth time to refresh my memory for the new book. And I have no doubt I'll feel the same way about all the characters when I'm done.
Whorealdo made me barf with his One More Thing proclaiming Atticus Finch as his guiding light and responsible for the direction of his life.
I wrote The Five that if they must plague us with Whorealdo, they need a man standing behind him with a hook to get him off camer when he goes off
IOW, Atticus Finch is human...........................
I think Finch is most likely a Christian. I’m going to have to read “Set a Watchman” now.
If this book forces liberals to confront the idea that “racism” covers a huge range of beliefs and values, and is no more worthy of contempt and abuse than any other philosophy, so much the better.
the new book was garbage, she was in denial, the publisher just printed it for the money.
If this was done by changing the names and under a pseudonym it would have tanked. This was cashing in on her name and her having written a book which was a famous movie. (the original book was a dull slog too)
This book was for the approval of the brie crowd and the low information white wine crowd.
So, I have never read the book. I always seem to catch the last half of the movie when it is on broadcast stations and I quickly turn it off because someday I'd like to read it and see the whole movie.
All my other classes in high school were top notch.
Everybody sees TKAM as a point being made about prejudice.
I see it as Harper Lee revealing herself to us.
It is fiction based somewhat on real events.
People wonder why she didn’t flaunt her fame.
I think it was because the world took a very personal story from a woman revealing her inner self and turned it into their cause. The world stole her story and used it for themselves.
She had to rewrite her original story several times in order to get it published. By doing this, the publishers framed her story the way they wanted it.
In effect, they made Lee’s baby their own.
It is a great story, but I don’t blame Harper Lee for not capitalizing on it.
