All of this transpired because Atticus is representing a black man in court case because he is not prejudice and most other people are. Francis cannot understand that everyone deserves equal representation. This can connect back to video because the video says "So tell me why the mode of pre-determined thought towards me. I'm not in that percentile. We're trying to be all that we can be. And they still stone me with their misconceptions about black men" (in reference to the way people see him). This can relate to Atticus, since he is defending a black man, people automatically look down upon them, and will soon look down upon Atticus, just as they looked down and stereotype a young black man. It is completely unfair to both parties and is morally wrong]]> 2020-04-22 13:06:51 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522921427 kdaurizio https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522930338 During school Cecil Jacobs harasses Scout about her fathers job because he is a lawyer and currently defending a black man. When Scout gets home that day she proceeds to question her father saying, "Do all lawyers defend n-Negroes, Atticus" (Lee 100)? Due to these derogatory remarks at school, Scout is now lead to believe that standing up for a black man is a negative thing. The video explains that the reason for stereotyping "...is that we have a lot of identities". During this time period people often stereotyped anyone that didn't look, or weren't like themselves, whether it be age, gender, race or ethnicity.]]> 2020-04-22 13:10:17 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522930338 kmartini1 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522931257 The rumor of Boo Radley and his evil instances was told to Jem and Scout by Miss Stephanie Crawford. She explained to them what Boo Radley does and his psyco tendencies. By telling Jem and Sout this, she becomes prejudice by spreading the rumor and influencing others. She also becomes stereotypical by sticking to the crowd of Maycomb individuals that believe this rumor and not thinking of the actual possibilities. In the video, the word perception is brought up that "gives people the opportunity for exception or on the 🤬 side of rejection."  This quote relates to Miss Stephanie and how she chooses to perceive the Boo Radley rumor to others in fear of being rejection by others not believing her story. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:10:38 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522931257 rfranck1 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522933017 Contrary to what Scout believes, Aunt Alexandra is convinced that Scout should spend her childhood preparing to be a proper lady and a good wife. She tells her to play with stoves and tea sets and to wear the pearl necklace she got her. According to Aunt Alexandra, Scout cannot wear pants and be the light in her father's life at the same time. The video touches on the many prejudices that have been engraved into women's minds. Because of this, Scout has to decipher what she knows to be her purpose in life as opposed to "role" of women in society at that time.]]> 2020-04-22 13:11:18 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522933017 jkaraty https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522935985 Miss. Maudie explains to Scout how she is considered a sinner in town by the other neighbors. She claims they say these harsh things about her because they are all foot-washers and "foot-washers believe that anything that's pleasure is a sin"(59). According to her other neighbors, Miss. Maudie was spending more time tending her flowers than she was inside studying the bible. Just based off this, the people were quick to judge about Miss. Maudie's beliefs and her future in the afterlife. They claimed that her and her "...flowers were going to hell"(59). In the video, it mentions how certain forms of stereotyping can cause people to lose interest in what they typically do, however, Miss. Maudie did not let these comments get to her. She continues to spend time outside tending her plants and holds her head high while doing it. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:12:26 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522935985 annmarie_davis1 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522938216 2020-04-22 13:13:17 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522938216 htoles https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522943253 Throughout chapter 9, Aunt Alexandra displays her beliefs of what it is to be a lady. She shows prejudice against women and she says that Scout, "...wasn't supposed to be doing things that required pants"(108). Aunt Alexandra's "vision" for Scout is to be playing with tea sets and fake kitchens and wearing pearls. She believes that Scout should be lady like and "behave like a sunbeam." The video relates to this in the part where the woman and men were given the same test. While the women struggled with the test, they were growing a belief for the stereotype of women being bad at math. This is similar to Scout because she is living in a world where woman have a stereotypical "life to live" and clearly Scout does not follow that "role" woman played at her time. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:15:15 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522943253 rsteigerwalt https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522944207 Boo Radley had been a symbol of terror in Maycomb for a long time. The children Dill, Scout, and Jem create a game making fun of the tragedy that is the Radley family story. Boo Radley clearly was in a right mental state and the children believed every rumor they heard about him. Other people judged based off of the rumors of what he did versus who he actually is. The video shows just how detrimental these words can be and how being judged is never gets easier. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522944207 jbarbosa https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522945662 Boo Radley is judged by most of the people living in Maycomb County, despite any of them ever meeting him. Rumors circulate about him being a peeping Tom, and being dangerous. He is always the victim of stereotype threats because people always assume about him without actually meeting him. For example, Scout, Jem, and other children always believed the rumors that he ate cats and small animals and was very dangerous, but in reality, he seems to be just a normal person who prefers to stay inside. Similar to the video where the woman's intelligence was judged as a child based on her skin color, Boo Radley is judged based on rumors that have been made up about him, where people tend to believe things that may not even be true. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:16:04 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522945662 cbanya https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522956207 Aunt Alexandra practices her belief of what is considered to make up a lady on Scout. She believes a lady should be, "involved playing with small stoves, tea sets, and wearing the Add-A-Pearl necklace she gave me when I was born"(Lee 108). According to her aunt, Scout should dress appropriately, such a a dress. Woman were seen as proper, but Scout went against the common stereotype. Relating to the video, a test was done by given both woman and men a difficult math test. The woman, as they struggled to complete the test, felt as if the stereotype "woman were bad at math" was true. Both woman during the 1930's and woman today face stereotypes. Like Aunt Alexandra had pressure to make Scout act like the stereotypes, the woman in the video believed that the math stereotypes were true about them. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:19:59 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522956207 ggarcia7 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522964858 Throughout chapter 9 there is a common trend that Atticus is a n-word lover and is a disgrace to the town and his family. When Scout, Jem, and Atticus meet up with the rest of their family tensions between cousin Francis and Scout rise high. When Francis proceeds to call Atticus  a "n-word lover" in a slanderous way and says "He's ruinin' the family, that's what he's doin" (Lee 110). This all came about due to the fact Atticus is representing a black man as his client. The extreme prejudiced and disregard for others in their society is clearly seen to the extent even have children think what Atticus is doing is wrong. This connect to the video because he talks about barriers and giving a blind eye to the unfortunate which is exactly what people in chapter 9 are doing. He also mentions predetermined thoughts which I think fits perfect here because so many people just assume that Mr. Robinson is guilty based on the color of his skin. This just goes to show how fractured society is and how unfair the justice system is towards minorities.]]> 2020-04-22 13:23:10 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522964858 abua1 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522965091 Throughout chapter 9, Aunt Alexandra makes it very clear that she doesn't believe the way Jem and especially Scout are being raised is adequate to the family name. Aunt Alexandra believes Scout should dress and act more like a lady because her behavior is unacceptable. Aunt Alexandra strictly believes in the stereotypes set by society of women in comparison to men. It is brought up by Aunt Alexandra that women should wear dresses never pants, and should play with girl toys not boys. This is a huge example of stereotyping in the novel and displays how Aunt Alexandra was raised with sexist outlooks on women. Atticus even makes a comment to this when talking to Scout, "Aunt Alexandra didn't understand girls much, she'd never had one"(Lee 84). Atticus explains that Aunt Alexandra never got the chance to understand the new age of women since she is stuck in her old ways. Women empowerment during this time period can definitely be exemplified by Scout because she doesn't care was people say about her and she does what she wants without limitations which Aunt Alexandra doesn't understand. Aunt Alexandra uses the physical stereotype as explained in the video that when she sees Scout in her breeches she automatically thinks Scout isn't a proper lady. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:23:15 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522965091 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522967344 When Miss Caroline introduces herself in the first day of class, she reveals herself to be an outsider to the students of Maycomb County. The students immediately begin stereotyping her for this, thinking she was squeamish and unfit to be a Maycomb teacher. Even when Miss Caroline screamed, the students did not try to see what scared her, they just assumed that she was freaking out over a rat because she has never seen one before.

Unfortunately, Scout is thereby forced to face the brunt of such cruelty. This is seen when her cousin Francis incites a sensitive topic at Christmas, "'It's bad enough he lets you all run wild, but now he's turned out a ni***r-lover we'll never be able to walk the  streets of Maycomb agin. He's ruinin' the family, that's what he's doin'.'" (Lee 110). This cruelty is due to Atticus' decision to represent a black man in court. Everyone just ignorantly assumes that he is guilty because of his skin color, without even caring to understand the case. This directly ties to Claude Steele's video when he argues, "All these different stereotypes and all types of legal rights because you look this way, and you look that way, and you're telling me it's okay to close a blind eye to the less fortunate simply because they are beneath you." Clearly, this same preconceived standard was set for Atticus' client before anyone could even learn to understand the case. Everyone lives in their own little bubble which suits them and their ignorant beliefs. In short, this encounter with Francis further demonstrates the cruel stereotypes of the world. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522977714 aquagliana https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522982218 In the earlier portion of the novel, Atticus is giving Scout advice on making her way through early school life, and gives the iconic quote"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view...until you climb into his skin and walk around in it."(Lee 39). On top of this clearly hinting towards obvious prejudice in the town, it also shows Atticus wants Scout to not become like the rest of Maycomb and be an individual who is unaffected by the prejudice ways of the town. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:29:28 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522982218 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522990655 Atticus Finch faces prejudice for defending a black person. The people of Maycomb, Alabama are know for gossip and spreading rumors around the town. Many people in Maycomb don't accept the fact that Atticus is willing to defend a client, even if they are black. At school one day, Cecil Jacobs exclaims in front of the class that Scout Finches dad defends n*****. Similarly to the video, Jonathan Lykes expresses how he there is perception of how people see others, they are either accepting, or they reject their stance in society. This relates to how Cecil is prejudice towards people of the opposite skin color and how her perception is rejecting them. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:32:23 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/522990655 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/523022424 Scout is the youngest of her small pack of friends and is the only girl. It is only natural that she feels left out sometimes and doesn’t feel that she fits in. She often asks her older brother if she can take part in the games he and their friend, Dill, play. Jem often dismisses her and tries to insult her to get her off of his back. “Jem told me I was being a girl, and that girls always imagined things, that’s why other people hated them so, and if I started behaving like one I could just go off and find some to play with” (Lee 54). Jem feels that the only way to put down his little sister is to dehumanize being a girl. Saying that girls imagine too much which is why no one likes them and if she ever acted like a girl, she could never play with the boys. Sadly, stereotyping is shown from such a young and naive perspective. ]]> 2020-04-22 13:43:33 UTC https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/523022424 https://padlet.com/annmarie_davis1/a7fa1eiwlx1n/wish/523084306 Aunt Alexandra believes that scout shout start to act like a lady. She tells her multiple times that she can never be a lady if she doesnt dress like one. Scout feels indifferent to her Aunts opinions and feels like Aunt Alexandra doesnt understand how she feels. Aunt Alexandra only tells her to act feminine but does not teach her or guide her. Scout feels like Alexandra does not have a right to tell her what to do or not to do.
