Question
Read the following
think Harper Lee chose Scout as the narrator because she's a child, and seeing the story through her eyes makes it more powerful and emotional. Since Scout is young, she notices what's going on around her but doesn't always fully understand it, which helps us as readers see how unfair and confusing the world can be. Her innocence also shows how racism and injustice are learned behaviors, not something people are born with. Scout's point of view is shaped by the fact that she's a white girl growing up in the South during a time of deep segregation. She gets to see the way Black people are treated unfairly, but she also has the privilege of being protected from some of it. This influences how she tells the story she sees the problems but is still figuring them out. As a modern reader, it's hard to read about the racism and injustice in the book, especially knowing that some of those issues still exist today. Scout's version of events feels honest and emotional, and it makes me think about how kids today also learn from what they see around them. The story shows how important it is to question what's right and wrong and to stand up for what's fair, like Atticus tries to teach her.

I agree that Harper Lee chose Scout as the narrator for a good reason. Seeing the story through her young eyes makes it emotional and helps us understand how unfair things were, especially when it comes to racism. Scout's innocent perspective shows us that these problems are learned, and it reminds us that we should always question what is right and wrong, just like Atticus teaches her.
