why question, you can create the three
opinions that will form your blueprint for the essay.  Here are
suggestions:


  • because of stereotyping - Boo
    Radley is a "haint," he is insane, etc.; the Ewell family is considered "white trash" 
    Tom Robinson is just a "nigger"

  • (because of) social
    taboos - Mr. Dolphus Raymond is ostracized because he breaks the social taboo of living
    with blacks. 

  • (because of) fear of change - Atticus Finch
    breaks the "norm" and his liberal thinking in education and social areas disturbs the
    status quo of Maycomb.
