Answer:
"To kill a Mocking bird" by Harper Lee shows the struggle of faith by Jem and Scout who fought for Tom Robinson. Two statements explains the judicial tragedy faced by Tom Robbinson and tells a lot about the response of characters and comunity to the trial. these statements are as follows.
“The one place where a man ought to get a square deal is in a courtroom, be he any color of the rainbow, but people have a way of carrying their resentments right into a jury box.”
“I waited and waited to see you all come down the sidewalk, and as I waited I thought, Atticus Finch won’t win, he can’t win, but he’s the only man in these parts who can keep a jury out so long in a case like that.”
Explanation:
The first statement reveals a complicated relationship between abstract judicial decisions and opinion of participating people. Even if the judicial trial seems fair on paper, one cannot dismiss the biasedness of jury. Atticus is telling Jem and Scout of the complications to make the trial practically unbiased. However, he also suggests that individuals and communities shall strive to make judicial trials free of prejudice to get an honest decision.
Another statement was the depiction of Maycomb community, in which the neighbor Miss Maudie reflects her sentiments on jury's decision. She also second Atticus views and believe that judiciary system will change with consistent struggle and working in the right direction to make a suitable change. Hence, the statement is a thread to optimistic struggle and hoping for a far-fetched change.
