Would be real nice to know what Supreme Court decision they keep talking about. Forgive me for not knowing the full history of Scotus re: civil and states rights...

"Prejudice, a dirty word, and faith, a clean word, have something in common: they both begin where reason ends."

Oh my god. Atticus is a racist. At least, by today's standards. In 1950s Alabama, he's downright progressive.

I'm assuming maybe the anti-segregation laws? Brown or the one about the Montgomery busses? But why would those annoy Scout?

Remember when this book was interesting? (That'll make you laugh when you read it). I don't get her Uncle Jack--snooze alert!

If a man tells you "this is the truth", and you believe him, and it is not, then you are disappointed. But if a man has lived that truth, and you have believed in what he lived, when he fails you, he leaves you with nothing. This is a great (paraphrased) thought, a horrible thought. And a core concept of this book.

This lack of sex Ed sounds reasonably similar to what kids learn, or rather don't learn, in today's country schools. Some things never change.

Scout's reaction to Atticus' change of heart (if it is one. I'm withholding judgment) mirrors that of the reader. That intrigues me.
