Dialectical Journal: To Kill a Mockingbird
TEXT (Quotation and Page #)
“Jem if you could stand in Bob Ewell’s shoes
a minute. I destroyed his last shred of
credibility at that trial, if he had any to begin
with. The man had to have some kind of
comeback, his kind always does. So if
spitting in my face and threatening me saved
Mayella Ewell one extra beating, that’s
something I’ll gladly take” (Lee 292-293).
Chapter 23
RESPONSE
This quote relates to the overall theme of empathy in To Kill
a Mockingbird. Again, Atticus urges his children to look___
through the eyes of someone else and try to understand their
point-of-view—their perspective. Empathy does not always
have to do with understanding someone who is going to a_
hard time, but also attempting to understand someone who_
is mean and bullies others. Atticus wants his children to
understand that putting others before your pride is________
important.________________________________________
