This amazing essay is on the differences and the similarities of the wonderful book To Kill a Mockingbird and the spectacular movie The Help. To Kill a Mockingbird was based in the 1930’s when they had just made the dreadful slavery of blacks and colored people illegal. The Help was in the 1960s and the colored people have had right for a few decades now but they still faced discrimination, prejudice people, and racism everyday.

First off they both showed discrimination of the colored people. Also they were both based in the 1900s. In the movie The Help there was one white woman who wanted to stick up for the colored community and in To Kill a Mockingbird there was one man who wanted to stick up for a black man which also gave power to the black community. The differences of To Kill a Mockingbird (1930s) and The Help (1960s) are there time. Also how much discrimination the black community faced. In To Kill a Mockingbird they were not allowed to do anything with a white person that includes even conversations with them if they were not started by the white person but in The Help if a black person wanted to talk to a white person they could but they were careful about it because they could still get in trouble. In the movie The Help there was a white woman who thought she was being good and fair but in reality she was being super racist like really racist. In conclusion the differences and similarities between To Kill a Mockingbird and The Help is very diverse but in all I feel they were more similar rather than different. But they do have some differences even though there was at least a 30 year time span between the movie The Help and the book To Kill a Mockingbird.
