Comments by Sophie Roane Most recent public comments by Sophie Roane https://nowcomment.com/users/75411 I agree with Megan and her idea that Aunt Alexandra was like this because of the time period. I think the era of this book has a lot to do with why Aunt Alexandra is acting like this. I also think Atticus has tried to do his part in raising a family that https://nowcomment.com/documents/194647?scroll_to=1814153 https://nowcomment.com/documents/194647?scroll_to=1814153 is moving forward and changing with the time and not sticking to tradition when tradition is wrong.

I think Calpurnia brought Jem and Scout to church because she is very close with them. https://nowcomment.com/documents/194647?scroll_to=1814144 https://nowcomment.com/documents/194647?scroll_to=1814144 I think this instance serves as evidence that Calpurnia and her family were enslaved because it talks about how it was a poor church and most of the congregation was illiterate. I also think Lula was rude to Cal because this church was something of their own and she didn't want the kids to take it away. Fri, 17 Apr 2020 13:26:31 -0400 I think part of Scout's empathy is coming from her recent experiences. She was involved in recent events that Jem got the blame for, so I think she notices that and is more understanding than normal. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760663 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760663 Thu, 02 Apr 2020 18:07:33 -0400 I also agree, I think Scout gets worried when she doesn't know everything because she can't figure out why people act the way they do, but learning from Atticus and Jem, she has become more compassionate. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760625 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760625 Thu, 02 Apr 2020 18:04:51 -0400 When I first read through these chapters I didn't notice this theme. Now reading through your comment, I agree. This chapter really highlights the Radley family not being so mean. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760591 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760591 Thu, 02 Apr 2020 18:02:38 -0400 At first, I did not think of theses chapters in this way. Sierra, your comment made me realize this theme throughout the text. It focused on their relationship in a way that you could have missed. https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760568 https://nowcomment.com/documents/186751?scroll_to=1760568 Thu, 02 Apr 2020 17:59:04 -0400
