Why does Lee want to remind the reader that the Finch family comes from a plantation? (Finch’s Landing functioned through a crue
rewona [7]

Lee reinforces that the Flinch family came from a plantation to highlight how they were raised within the concepts of a rural and southern community.

<h3>Why emphasize rural and southern culture?</h3>
  • Because the book was supposed to show the society in which the family grew up.
  • Because the book needed to show how the family was brought up with conservative and racist concepts.
  • Because the book needed to show that denying racism is a matter of common sense.

The Finch family takes a stand against racism, even though they grew up in a society where it was encouraged. At this point, Lee reinforces how the family decided to abandon bad teachings, showing that it is possible to have a change in attitude and position in the midst of injustice.

This question is about the book "To Kill a Mockingbird."

we are in beautiful venice we saw the whole city we rode in gondolas to see the sites we saw incredible architecture and artwork
Korvikt [17]
The most obvious fault of this paragraph is the lack of punctuation marks. The entire paragraph is one sentence, when there are supposed to be periods, commas, and other punctuation marks to separate them. This makes this paragraph one run-on sentence, which is grammatically incorrect.
