Theme Of Guilty In To Kill A Mockingbird

One mockingbird theme is the moral nature of human beings. For example how one person can be a mockingbird like Scout. Scout can be shown as a mockingbird symbol because she sees everything with innocence in her childhood. For instance when the mob of men are out to hurt Tom Robinson, Scout sees Mr. Cunningham among them and says, “Hey Mr. Cunningham I go to school with Walter” (Lee 205).

This shows that Atticus is a mockingbird because he was working hard to get Tom Robinson free even if there was little to none hope. In conclusion it comes down to the main
