Okay, I just looked through one of my old essays that I wrote for the novel, and in it, I listed every issue addressed in the book.

Racism and discrimination is addressed in the book. An example of it is when Tom Robinson went to trial because he was accused of raping a white woman, simply because he was black.

That means A can't be the answer.

Here's a more subtle example of racism. Three blacks had to give up their seats so some children could watch the trial.

I don't recall anything mentioning prison reform in the book, so chances if B being the correct answer is high.

Education was mentioned through out the book. Education in Maycomb was backwards and contradictory, though education was not always based in school.

That means C can't be the answer.

Poverty was a big issue, and was mentioned throughout the book. The Great Depression hit everyone in Maycomb. There were extremely poor families, such as the Ewells and Cunninghams, and other hard working poor African American families.

That means the final answer would be B) Prison reform

Hope your assignment won't be too difficult for you. If you need any help, you can just ask me :)

Answer from: Quest

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
