in the context of this speech, how does prejudice emerge? Can McCarthy be entirely to blame for the Red Scare of the 1950s? What
kap26 [50]

Prejudice arises when a large number of people decide to believe and promote an incorrect and harmful concept about a group of people. Within this context, we can say that MacCarthy was not the only one to blame for the Red Scare of the 1950s.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Senator MacCarthy was one of those most responsible for the fear of communism, which occurred in a generalized way in the country in the 50s.
  • This dread was so intense, that this era is known as the Red Scare or era of McCarthyism.
  • Although Senator MacCarthy was the representative face of this moment, he was not the only one responsible for spreading this fear in society, as the American media and other politicians reinforced this idea.

MacCarthy promoted controversial speeches and spurred the indictment and punishment of people suspected of communism. These speeches were stimulated by the media, causing unjustified prejudice and a wave of oppression and unfounded accusations.

In addition to MacCarthy, other senators and politicians embraced this prejudiced concept against communism and encouraged laws, speeches, comments, and other activities that gave Red Scare strength. Some of these politicians were Richard M. Nixon, Karl E. Mundt, Patrick A. McCarran, among others.

Give three examples of how the author gives a sense of Jem's character in the first chapter. Discuss the author's use of verb mo
Zarrin [17]
Unlike Atticus and Calpurnia, Harper Lee does not give us a paragraph describing Jem. Instead we must learn about his character through his actions and speech. Sometimes Scout will use a descriptive sentence for her brother's character but mostly the reader learns about him as the story progresses. Many of Jem's statements in the first chapter are written in the imperative mood. For example, he says, "Don't blame me when he gouges your eyes out." By using the imperative mood, Harper Lee shows Jem to be older and seemingly the leader of Dill and Scout. The use of the indicative mood in Jem's dialogue also shows his stubbornness as a leader. When Dill is pressuring him into touching the house of Boo Radley, Jem says, "I'm going...don't hurry me." Even though Jem is worried about what may happen when he touches the house, he stays in control of the situation by using both the indicative and imperative mood in this sentence. Jem is also seen as the protector of Scout. When Jem is hesitant about making Boo Radley come out of the house because he fears for his life, Scout notes, "Besides, Jem had his little sister to think of." It is clear from this sentence, that Jem looks out for Scout which shows that he is a protective, responsible older brother.
