Behind the Scenes
When she wrote To Kill a Mockingbird in 1960, Harper Lee, a young female writer from
Monroeville, Alabama, created a work that cut to the heart of American racism and prejudice.
The novel, published after Rosa Parks’ refusal to give up her bus seat but before Martin Luther
King, Jr.’s I Have a Dream speech in Washington, DC, created a firestorm of its own by using
racially derogatory language as it commented on racism.
Get This!
1. Harper Lee does not shy away from addressing challenging issues. Look for issues, besides
racism, that the novel takes on. Think about these issues in the context of the 1960s America in
which the novel was published.
2. To Kill a Mockingbird is told from the point of view of a young girl. Think about how the story
would differ if told from the viewpoint of Atticus, Jem, or Boo Radley.

Represent!
Show what you know about To Kill a Mockingbird and its relevance to your life. Choose one of
these projects to complete and share with your teacher, classmates, and others.
Choice 1: 21
st
Century Scout
While the themes of racism and prejudice echo throughout society, some of the specific issues
addressed in To Kill a Mockingbird are firmly rooted in 1950s and ‘60s America. Thankfully the
segregation in the novel no longer occurs in modern-day America. If Harper Lee wrote a sequel
set in today’s world, what issues would she address? What would Scout be doing today?
Create a modern-day version of To Kill a Mockingbird. You may create a written or a video
version. Be sure to think about where Scout would be today and what she would be doing.
What the pertinent injustice in our society that you think the updated version should address,
and how would you accomplish this?
Choice 2: Institutionalized Racism
Examples of racism abound throughout To Kill a Mockingbird. While many of these examples
occur in individuals’ beliefs and actions, the society of 1960s Alabama creates and legalizes
many of them, such as separate seating for blacks and whites in the courthouse.
Create a Powerpoint presentation which discusses the ways that the society in the novel
legalized and reinforced racism in the novel. Additionally, include what American events and
laws overturned this institutionalized racism and assess American society today in how it deals
with all types of racism and injustice.
