15 - T - Lee built up the reader's emotions by including intense moments like Scout running up to Atticus while the kids are sneaking around, Jem being man handled by one of the men and other junctures leading up to Scout's scene where she talked the men down. This is significant because Lee demonstrates her consistent style of writing by 'dropping' the reader after coming to a climax. Now, the reader can predict that this scene will be brought back and be important later in the books.

Does the moment in which Heck Tate continuously tells Atticus he will not win the trial foreshadow prejudice in the Maycomb community against Tom Robinson/the African American people? What effect could this eventually have on the trial?

T: Jem has been mimiking Atticus up until this point in the book where finally Jem takes a page out of Atticus' book and stands up for what he believes in-goiung back to the point where courage is fighting a fight you know you can't win, but try anyway.

Lee uses vivid description in the beginning of fifteen, and because of that, you get a clear image. Ithink Harper uses this style to show Scout really remembers this important moment and that we should as well.

Jem's disobeying of Atticus when he refuses to leave the jail is an example of how Lee has made Jem grow as a character and how he now has the maturity to go against Atticus when it is for his own good.

T- Scout felt obligated to protect Atticus from the mob, because he's their father and they know how much backlash he gets because he's doing this case.

Lee called back to an earlier important quote from Atticus in this chapter. Atticus previously said that people need to stand in someone else's shoes to fully understand their perspective. In this chapter, Atticus is discussing the events at the jail and says that Walter "stood in his shoes" for a moment, causing him to leave and the situation to be resolved.

Lee is showing further that Jem is becoming more and more similar to Atticus in this chapter with how he is being extremely involved in the way that he is watching the trial progress. Jem is constantly showing with his demeanor and body language that he is either happy about what is going on in the case or is not. The way that Jem watches the trial is similar to how a normal kid would watch a baseball game, and it shows how much Atticus has influenced Jem and how much he has learned from him and taken a liking to his career.

T: The morning after the jail scene, Atticus was telling the kids that Mr. Cunningham was still a good man, because he was influenced by the words of a large group of people and that was just one of his blind spots. This could emphasize how mob mentality can affect some of the best people.

The moment that Lee includes in which Jem and Scout still sit with the reverend on the balcony even when they do not particularly fit in with all of the other African Americans gives insight on the way that Atticus raised them, and has the underlying idea that the way you were raised and influenced in that era has a profound effect on your treatment toward people of color.

Mr. Underwood is known as a Racist, but in 15 he is helping cover Atticus in the jail scene. Harper lee uses this moment, to show how people can be on both sides of the arguement, and Underwood in this case is on Atticus' side.

T - Mr. Ewell and Mr. Tate act very suspicious in this chapter. For example, when Mr. Ewell decided that Atticus's question was a "safe question". If they didn't have anything to hide they wouldn't have to hesitate answering questions.

Q: Why didn't Attius tell Scout and Jem exactly why he was defending Tom Robinson?

# data[].attributes.body
Atticus uses multiple questions against Heck Tate, and Mr. Ewell. These help prove the point that Mr. Ewell most likely did it. Harper Lee is giving us hope, but she is most likely setting us up for failure when Atticus loses because of bias.

Atticus finds evidence to prove Tom Robinson innocent many two times through his sly questioning. He asks Mr. Ewell why he did not call for a medic when Mayella was hurt, and asked Mr. Ewell to write something (so he could then see that he was left handed). If Lee has Atticus obtain enough evidence to win the trial, in what ways could the racially biased court still cause Tom Robinson to lose (based on the foreshadowing of racial issues already shown throughout the book)?

T- During the trial, Mr. Tate always began to address Bob Ewell as Bob and then quickly corrected himself to say Mr. Ewell mulitiple times. This demonstrates uneasiness on Mr. Tate's part

Q - What is the importance of explaining there is segregation on both sides?

Atticus is defending Tom Robinson and is making two important points to the judge. That they didn't call a doctor for her injuries and that she was hit on the right side.
