LA Blog Post 5 - Character Sketch

For this ACE blog post, I will be writing about Atticus Finch form To Kill A Mockingbird. I decided to do this blog post on Atticus because I feel that he is a very great person who is very honest, polite, persistent, knowledgeable and is not prejudice against the coloured folks. He took up the case of a black man,Tom Robinson, who was accused of raping a white girl because he felt that the black man was innocent. Despite knowing that people would criticize him for defending a black man and that the chances of winning the case is very slim, he still put in his best and fight for the rights of Tom Robinson. Along the case, people insulted him by saying he was a nigger-lover etc. but he still kept his calm and tolerated all the insults. Despite losing the case in the end, he has no regrets because he has already put in his best to fight for what he thought was right.
