Chapter 23
Regarding Jem’s future career, I don’t know if he will be inclined to become a lawyer to defend people such as Tom, but I do think his attitude will reflect the things he saw in his youth. He had strong feelings about the case, and was disgusted and upset when the jury convicted an innocent man. I think that he will be like Atticus, and not be prejudiced, and not stereotype people. He will try to become an open minded man, not closed minded like the majority of the people in Maycomb.
I agree with your answer. I think that because of the trial Jem will not be prejudice towards blacks. I think that the trial made Jem open his eyes towards blacks and people in general (especially in Maycomb). I do think the trial might inspire Jem to become a lawyer one day like Atticus because he will want to help innocent people.
Good work!
