To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Atticus
Pursuer,
Sage,
Empathetic.
Wishes to cure the disease of racism,
Dreams of every man having their own voice,
Wants to raise his children in a healthy community,
Who wonders if his family could trudge through the most challenging case of his career.
Who fears discrimination towards his children,
Who is frightened of the future.
Who likes to swivel his perspective to see the healthy aspect in people and justice.
Who believes that it will never hurt to try again after a hundred years.
Who loves Jem and Scout,
Who loves the familiar community of the small town,
Who loves honesty, purity and the raw truth.
Who plans to make a change in society,
Who plans to accomplish the unaccomplished,
Who plans to obey the laws of justice.
Whose final decision is to be heard by others.
Finch
