Atticus’s Sacrifice
Taking a risk to help someone can be a great feeling. Would you stand up for someone if it meant people would dislike you? Atticus, from Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird said “People generally see what they look for and hear what they listen for.” He knows that people won’t want to believe that tom is innocent but he still tries. Atticus understands hardships and will stand up for anyone who needs it. Everyone in life has to make a sacrifice. In this case Atticus gave up is reputation.

They basically gave themselves away without realizing it and that’s just how great Atticus is at what he does. He can make people reveal what they want to keep a secret and he has perfectly mastered this skill.

If you would need help and you deserve that help he would do it. Just like in the Tom Robinson case. Even though everyone went against him he stayed true to himself and did what no one in that time would have. He was willing to ruin his reputation in the city to help a young man. This proves that he would stand up for
