The real Atticus

As Jackie so aptly put it: "Jim Crow came when they stopped slavery but the South got to do racist things anyway." Segregation and racism affected everyone in the Old Confederacy--the Southern States that continued to oppress Negroes with separate bathrooms, seats in the back of the bus, and other indignities. But everyone was corrupted by this system, even the Whites. Harper Lee's dad was no different. He was part of the White World of the South. From your research tell me about Lee's dad and how he compares to Atticus.

Truman Capote and Dill

The character Dill in TKAM is based upon a real person, Truman Capote. Please investigate this man, Capote, and write a 100+ word reply telling me who he was, why he was interesting and what was his connection to Harper Lee.
