The Great Depression In The 1930s

In the novel there are a couple of ways it reflects to historical realities. One of the ways it reflected historical realities was by reflecting the “Great Depression in the 1930s”. The second way this novel reflected historical realities was by talking about the race in the south. The author of this novel Harper Lee gives an image to the reader about the racial injustice that she was able to see as a child. I almost forgot to mention that the author also shares what is considered her feeling on the civil rights throughout her novel. So how does the novel reflect on the “Great Depression in the 1930s”? Well in the novel you can tell that African Americans were still slaves and being treated like they are not even human. Another way you
can tell this novel was relating to The Great Depression is that the characters never really talk about money or buying new thing for themselves and plus the novel has a sad feeling to it. The second way this novel reflects historical realities is by talking about the race in the south during that time. For example it talks about how that many of the states passed laws which limits what African Americans can do in community they live in. The laws forced white and black people to use different things. Each race had its own bathroom or drinking fountain. This lasted for quite some time until African American got their rights, but they did not get their rights all at once. It toke years and years to get their rights.
