Once again, welcome to our class blog! The blog is a place for you to discuss your thoughts about our class reading and activities. We will visit the computer lab, as a class on a regular basis. There will be various assignments and questions posted here that you must complete and discuss.

If you need to think twice about saying something, it is probably best to leave it out.
That being said - HAVE FUN!

Stand Up!
In To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus stands up for something that he believes in - the idea that all people deserve a fair trial, regardless of race. Atticus and his family suffer the insults of many of the people in Maycomb and their family. Do you think that Atticus should have defended Tom Robinson? Would you stand up for something that you believe in even if it meant that physical or emotional harm might come to you and/or your family?

I would agree with Atticus's opinion. All people deserve a fair trial.
yea i agree with wat mike said because if ur innocent and ur found guilty cause ur black or any other color its wrong.
i agree with Atticus. Everybody should have a fair trial.
yes i dont care. i would stand up for wat i bleave in no matta who its for or wat its for. race should not stand in the way for what you bleave in. atticuss is a fair man and he waz doing the rite thing by deffending tom robinson. atticuss waz getting paid to deffend him. it was his job if he didnt do it he might have lost his job. do u think that atticuss would have deffended tom robinson if it wasnt his job. no he wouldnt havei no it that is being racist.
I belevie that atticus was right for defending tom robinson b/c eveyrone deserves a Fair trial.
I would deffinetly stand up for something i Believe in even if it would effect my family b/c they are very strong people so they will be able to handle it even if they are emotinal changed I have A big family so there will always be someone around to defend them.
atticus should defend tom robinson.evenryone deserves a fair trial and atticus thinks so too.atticus had no choice to take the case but he took it knowing that jem and scout would look up to him for defending what he believes in.i woul stand up for what i believe in because everyone deserves a fair chance
yea he defended tom. and yea he sis so the right thing even tho it might harm him and his kids.
i think atticus should have defended tom because atticus was the only person who knew itwas his responsibility to defend tom. also any other white man would not defend tom so atticus was the only one that cared about tom living.
yes I think Atticus should have defended Tom Robinson like he did because it was the right thing to do and probably nobody else would have. Atticus is the only who who cared about Tom. Any other white man would have probably not defended Tom.
I think it was right for Atticus to defend Tom even with the many insults that were thrown at him. They're just views of what people think and Atticus has learned to accept everyone's view. All people who threatened Atticus did not succeed in doing what they had said. Obviously Atticus's way is right.Everyone deserves a fair trial to see who really did the crime and who didnt
