To kill a mocking bird
During the December holidays I read the book ''To kill a mocking bird''. Upon reading this book, it has showed me that in our world there exists a social inequality, and that the world cannot be split clearly between black and white. While it is important the we are able to differentiate between while is wrong and right, we would have to learn to understand evil and except it as part of our lives. We have to be able to embrace this and not get confused between what is morally correct or incorrect. This book has also not to judge someone based on their appearance. In the past, the African Americans were treated very harshly by the white-skinned Americans, they were treated like thrash and were forbidden to many basic privileges simply because of their skin colour. However, this book has showed me not to discriminate against others simply because of their race of religion. We should instead treat them as equals and give them respect as we would to our friends.
