Chapter 16

As the family sat around the breakfast table, they have begun to discuss racial matters in the town of Maycomb. During this Atticus states that an 8 year old managed to bring everyone to their senses. He was referring to how Scout had begun to realize as to how bad racism is. Even I have noticed people in town talking about Scout. It isn't every day that you hear about an 8 year old child teaching older people a life lesson.
