Evaluate Harper Lee’s rendering of Bob Ewell. To what extent does Bob Ewell fit the description of the redneck stereotype? What

purpose does he play as a character in the story? Is his character more than a stereotype?

Answer:

Bob Ewell perfectly fits the redneck stereotype. He corresponds to the social stereotype of not being educated and being of the working class. He also fits the cultural stereotype of rednecks by demonstrating blatant and base bigotry as well as uncouth comportment (when he is called to testimony). Ewell is also an alcoholic and displays violent tendencies.

This matches the redneck (poor white Southerner) formula to near exactitude.  

Even his name (Bob) and daughter's name (Mayella) seem to fit this image.

Bob Ewell is intended to represent a particular role of prejudice and racism in Southern society. Though it serves as a symbol, his character can be considered more than a mere stereotype... as it says something critical about his society. Societies are complex.

SOVA2 [1]

My idea on cancel culture is that it can get extreme and unproductive when it gets toxic.

<h3>Cancel culture</h3>

Cancel culture is a way that people use to express their displeasure and anger over issues that they find dissatisfying.

It leads to ostracizing people or organizations due to their acts, behaviors or opinions.

Even though it can deter people and even organizations from posting offensive views, it could be negative most times.

  • Cancel culture can get too far when the people are against anyone who has a different opinion from them.
  • It could be regarded as toxic if it drives the other party to want to harm themselves
  • If it involves invasion of privacy and threat.

It is not the best response for wrongdoing because there are other ways of tackling issues and disagreements without ostracizing the other person.

Make a story using these words: Atmosphere, Energy, Feature, Measurment, Rotation, Solar system, Solid, Surface. I will give 78
anzhelika [568]
The atmosphere is a peculiar thing. There can be different things in the air and we wouldn't even know it. We inhale different things from the atmosphere and we sometimes don't even notice.

Energy is in everything. We have energy, a pencil has energy, heck! A piece of cheese string has energy. When we move, we are using our energy, when a pencil writes or falls, that is energy. When we eat cheese, it turns to energy in our stomachs!
