The poem is about a little girl who grows up around racism and has a black maid. That poem is very much alike with Scout. She was growing up with people calling her father names like, negro lover (pg.110).Also she lived down south in Maycomb where no one had respect for black people and one of her closest friends was her maid Calpurnia, who happened to be black.

Movie

The movie 42 is about Jackie Robinson, a baseball player whose black. The other people don't want him to play on the team and think he shouldn't be aloud to. This compares to tkam because people in Maycomb like the Ewells despised black people. They didn't want to be near them and they thought that they were nothing but trouble. White people had there own places and blacks had theirs, for example they each had there own churches and a side of the town.

The comic can relate to TKAM because in the book, Scout explains the Negros houses as warm and inviting on (page229), she says "In the frosty December dusk, their cabins looked neat and snug with pale blue smoke rising from the chimneys and doorways glowing amber from the fires inside". The cartoon shows that even a black person can be intelligent. The comparison of the two is that just because you're black doesn't mean that you should be considered less of any white person

The book A Time to KIll is a lot like TKAM. In A Time to kill a black man sees injustice in a court room with his daughter. They didn't find the white men guilty for raping her. This is just how it was with Tom Robinson, he should have been ruled innocent but because he was black he was found guilty, and because the father and daughter were black their case was unfair.

Current event

The George Zimmerman case can be compared to the Tom Robinson case. Blacks and Whites had different views on the case . Most black people think that he shot Trayvon Martin because he was racist . Some white people, but not all, think it was self defense. In TKAM Tom Robinson had all the colored people on his side and most white people were on Ewells side, but going through the cases people got different views
