Jane’s cousin, Master John, discovers her reading a book from ‘his’ bookshelf, and assaults her. When taking Jane to the red-room, Miss Abbot comments: “And you ought not to think of yourself on an equality with the Misses Reed and Master Reed, because Missis kindly allows you to be brought up with them. They will have a great deal of money, and you will have none: it is your place to be humble and to try to make yourself agreeable to them.” Even as a child, Jane is emotionally neglected because of the prejudices of society. Of no fault of her own, she was predetermined a social outcast to her aristocratic relatives, purely because of her genealogy. Whilst this approach would have been accepted by readers of the time as natural, within a modern society a strong sense of injustice is aroused.

He also says how he believes in the "integrity" of the courts and jury system, basically saying how he trusts the jury to make the right decision, and knows that they know Tom is innocent, even if they do not give the verdict that way. This part of the book is the most important to me because I feel that Atticus is absolutely right, he believes in equality no matter what color skin you have, he believes to do what is right. To summarize the speech Atticus explains to everybody in Maycomb that Tom is not guilty and that he should be given a chance. Although Atticus proved Tom was innocent, he was still ruled guilty because Tom was black and the Ewells were white this proves just how racist the people of Maycomb were against black people. Tom is the mockingbird in “To Kill a Mockingbird” because he never did anything to hurt anybody but was accused of rape by Bob Ewell, Tom ended up dying toward the end because he was “guilty”.
Prior to Dee’s arrival home, Mama is recalling her recurring dream of how she thinks Dee would prefer Mama to look and act. It is unfair of Mama to assume that Dee would prefer her “a hundred pounds lighter, my skin like uncooked barley pancake” (456). Mama is putting words in Dee’s mouth and intimating that Dee is shallow and critical of her Mama’s appearance. Susan Farrell writes that it is Mama who is “ashamed of her own appearance and very much seeks her daughter’s approval” (1).
That’s another reason why I hated like hell for her to know I got the ax again.”(107), and this causes Holden to worry about her, and nurture her more than she nurtures him. We see that Holden appreciates what movements his mother makes towards parenting, however pathetic they are, such as when he brings up an expensive pair of ice skates that she buys him, and although they are the wrong kind, he appreciates that she made the gesture, and feels bad that he is getting kicked out of school (51-52). When there is finally an interaction in the novel with Mrs. Caulfield, we see that she is rather unwell. “‘Goodnight. Go to sleep now.
We first hear of Curley’s wife in chapter two, Candy feeds George and Lennie information about Curley’s wife before she enters the bunkhouse. Candy is preparing them for her, as if she will automatically bring trouble and woe. “Wait’ll you see Curley’s wife”…“she got the eye.” This is the first time we hear of Curley’s wife and we already feel uncomfortable towards her, Steinbeck is prejudicing the reader before we can construct our own opinion. However we also sympathise towards her at the start because we realise Curley's wife doesn’t have a real name. This shows us Curley uses he wife as a trophy and she was never given a name in the novel, she is only treated as a possession of Curley and how no one else on the ranch wanted to get to know her but avoid her instead.
