Themes In To Kill a Mockingbird

Some major themes in TKM is racism and equality because when calpernia took Jem and Scout to her church, there were lots of black people and they wasn't happy when white people like Scout and Jem was are. There Aunt Alexandra does like calpernia, she does not like scout the way she ask, and she does not like it when her brother Atticies defends Tom Robersince. The lesson I think the character will learn to stop racism for whats not right for other poeple and what they don't like. The lesson Harper Lee wants me to learn about the end is that everyone should be equal.
