"To Kill A Mockingbird" is set in the south during the days when segregation still existed. Blacks were not treated equally and were looked down upon by the whites. Many of them were looked at as servants and they weren't treated fairly at all when it came to justice. Many times they were blamed for things they didn't do because the whites knew their word would be taken over the blacks.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," the attitude towards black people is characterized by racism, segregation, and discrimination.
