Brooks shows us that the plague causes many to suffer not only physically however mentally and emotionally as well.

This caused Anna to come to a point in her life where she could either sink or swim and Anna decided to sink. Anna decided to be cruel to herself and turned to poppies, even though it did relieve her pain then, she suffered much more later. Not only did people suffer from the plague and what it brings, however people suffered from their own personal upbringing.

In Raney’s mind, Charles was placing blame on her, her family, and specifically, her mother who spent most of her time taking care of Uncle Nate. This caused Raney to leave Charles and stay with her Aunt Flossie for a period of time. This incident opened both their eyes about their communication and conflict issues and forced them to come up with a way to deal with their problems before it leads to a failed marriage.

When she is called to the stand she is “fragile-looking” and “looked as if she tried to look clean”. This agrees with the readers theory that Mayella is wanting be good, yet she is tainted by her father who “had a scalded look” due to “an overnight soaking”. Again we see that she is different from her despised family as she wants to be clean and noble. As the reader begins to feel that Mayella doesn’t want to punish Tom Robinson we see her “burst into tears” as begins to be questions. This would make some readers feel pity for Mayella as she is lamenting due to horrific flashbacks she may encounter, others may think that this is a cover up as she knows what she is doing is wrong, and she is trying to get the judge and the jury to side with her.
It is a way for Hester to make up for her wrong doing and a way for her to look inside herself and change something about her. It is the letter that makes Hester feel at fault and once she removes it she heaves “…a long, deep sigh, in which the burden of shame and anguish departed from her spirit”(159). The letter holds all the guilt and blame that Hester feels so that when she takes off the letter, the shame is removed with it. Hester also truly feels guilty about what she’s done because she feels sorry for her daughter, Pearl. Pearl often is looked upon as a child of a sinner and Hester sees the way other children treat her.

So even though they share thing and have thing that differ there both based on the concept of love and how it can change a person no matter
Several times throughout this movie I had broken down and cried because It truly hurt me to know that others could be treated like garbage just because there race is different. Various feelings and scenarios throughout this movie touched my heart and the sensitive side within me. It sickens me to know that people out there truly treat others the way some of these characters’ were portrayed. It makes me wonder how others make themselves feel somewhat superior to others just by putting them down. Since when did the color of one’s skin impact the true status of a person?
Having to give birth to the child she conceived during this horrible event would only add to her stress and remind her of what happened. While the debate continues, I feel people have the right to do whatever they feel is best for
