Answer:

He does this by rejecting the racist concepts that society has imposed and teaching his children to follow his example and put themselves in the shoes of others to understand how they feel.

Explanation:

Jim Crow's laws were extremely racist and segregationist laws, which sought to devalue and injustice African-American society. "To Kill a Mockingbird," in turn, is a book that shows how racism is deeply rooted in society, reaching the point of allowing horrible injustices to happen to the black population, to the point that this population takes serious risks to their lives and freedom.

Atticus is an essential character in this book, as he stands in favor of the wronged blacks, putting himself in their shoes and understanding the social danger they face. This empathy of Atticus, makes him refuse all racist concepts that society tries to impose on him, even if he is harmed by it. In addition, he encourages his children to follow his example, showing that no one is born a racist, but is taught to be a racist. This behavior of Atticus goes against the whole ideology of the Jim Crow laws, showing a discreet but impactful protest to those laws.

Answer:

Fact: State Security clearance was required for government appointments

Statistics :  40% of Egyptians lived below the poverty line.

Explanation:

Revolution 2.0 is a chronological record of the uprising that occurred in Egypt in Jan 2011. The uprising led to the toppling of the then government led by Hosni Mubarak.

The fact used as evidence was that state security approval was sought and granted before anyone could hold any senior position in government or politics. The government achieved this by keeping a dossier - a record of activities- on everyone considered a threat or an activist, which was used to blackmail them in case they decided to raise a dissenting voice.

This control measure was used to ensure that no one in senior position of authority would had enough clout to lead a revolt or revolution.

The statistics was that 40% of Egyptians lived below the poverty line. Hence poverty was used as a weapon in oppressing and  subjugating the people.
