All characters in the three books showed perseverance and dedication to what they believed in. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:41:25 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152278680 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152280021 My favorite character would be Jem. He is a very smart, determined, boy who was looking for the good throughout the whole book. And where he couldn't find the good, he created it. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:44:50 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152280021 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152280781 2017-02-07 19:46:50 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152280781 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152281011 My favorite character would be Emmett himself. He was faced with death and he still would not say that him being black made him any less of a person than a white person. His bravery is inspiring.

She is such a strong individual. Her story is so sad, but it inspires me to never give up on my dreams, even if at the time it looks like I can't achieve them. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:50:15 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152282077 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152283010 "Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what." I really like this quote because I think it is a powerful description of courage. It shows that you can be afraid, and still have courage. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:52:53 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152283010 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152284147 “the way I see it, hard times aren't only about money, or drought, or dust. hard times are about losing spirit, and hope, and what happens when dreams dry up.” Hard times aren't about the circumstances, but our reaction to them, and the hope that is lost. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:55:55 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152284147 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152284471 "Southern racism won a battle in the Emmett Till case, but that would be one of its last victories in its war against integration and racial equality." I love this quote because even though it is extremely sad that there wasn't justice served to the men who murdered Emmett, things would start to change. And that at least gave the readers hope. ]]> 2017-02-07 19:56:47 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152284471 chapmbry001 https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152877622 2017-02-09 18:40:03 UTC https://padlet.com/chapmbry001/lei562rxe6a2/wish/152877622
