In the novel To Kill a Mocking Bird written by Harper Lee, Atticus Finch a father of two children, plays an important role in the story. He sets an example for his children who are beginning to grow up. Atticus doesnt believe all men fit the description of being equal in America. Although no one is born equal, he decides to treat everyone equal.Atticus believes that men arent equal he feels men arent born equal at all. Some are born having more opportunities. We know all men are not created in the sense about people would have us believe-some people are smarter than others, some people have more opportunity than others, some ladies make better cakes than others-some people are born gifted beyond the normal scope of most men (Lee 205). Atticus shows that there is no such(prenominal) thing as men being equal. He explains that life isnt the fairest thing and it will always be that way.He then goes on and explains that men arent equals in life, but in court they are. But there is one way in this country in which all men are created equal-there is one human institution that makes a pauper the equal of a Rockefeller, the stupid man the equal of an Einstein, and the ignorant man the equal of any college president. That institution, gentlemen, is a court (Lee 205). He says this to prove his point to the jury that Tom Robinson should be treated equally in this case, and the c ase should be taken seriously.He knows Tom isnt considered an equal to a white female, to the jury. He doesnt believe he is either, but in court he should be. Atticus has a certain point of view on equality. He knows not everyone is equal in life, and no one is born equal. He believes the only time men are equal is in the courtroom. Equality affects the story based off how many times it is used and exemplified. It shows how people should be treated in real life situations.
