Major Theme

Good and Evil

To Kill a Mockingbird

is an exploration of human morality, and presents a constant

conversation regarding the inherent goodness or evilness of people. Atticus, father

of Scout and Jem, also plays the role of teacher, for his children and his town.

Atticus believes that people usually contain aspects of both good and evil, but that

good will usually prevail. Atticus teaches this to his children, but also to the town, as

he works to defend Tom Robinson, an innocent black man accused of raping a white

woman. In the racist town of Maycomb in the heart of America's South during the

Depression era, this is a Herculean task. Despite the challenge of overcoming the

town's deeply ingrained racism and forcing people to change their social

perspectives, Atticus struggles on, because he believes that one day, goodness will

prevail over the evils of racism and racial equality will exist.
