Answer:

What examples does chapter 19 provide of characters practicing empathy

In this chapter Jem, Scout and Dill are the characters that practice empathy. When the trial of Tom Robinson was about to start, Jem, Scout and Dill snuck into the courtroom. They were not supposed to be there.

Which characters are able to ""climb into the skin"" of others and ""walk around in it""?

Boo Radley, Atticus Finch and Tom Robinson are all victims of prejudice, and all three characters are plagued by this.

How do they respond to others as a result?

It affects them all differently; crippling them and disabling them from acting as they wish

What are the consequences

These characters suffered due to the prejudice that they face. For instance, the first character Boo, is excluded and always kept away from society by his father who locks him up. It is obvious that Boo suffers from lack of socialization and in addition to his cruel father, he grows up to be an antisocial individual who is lonely. Atticus on the other hand has to confront a mob that is ready to kill Tom and he puts his life in danger. He also suffers the lack of approval by his fellow white folks. Furthermore, his looks have made the town to brand him as evil. This social discrimination makes him a victim because when he is claimed to be the one causing evil, the children, as well as adults, dislike him. He thus suffers emotionally.

Elan Coil [88]

This is an example. None of this really happened. (I have a dog)

Ex:

<em>"It was a crisp, cold, dark night if I remember correctly. I was rushing my parents out the door and into the car so we could go to the vet. Our cat got hit by a car a couple blocks away and someone brought her to the vet. I was relived because if our cat didn't have a microchip they probably would've taken my cat! I was so scared. My heart was beating super fast, my palms were sweaty. Anyway, as I got there my stomach sank. I hated the vet, the doctor, etc. The vet asked if we were the owners and then took us to the room he was in. He wasn't hurt too bad. He broke his paw, but he'll manage. Moral of the story, is I will never forget how scared I was."</em>
