I just had a unit on this book in my English class. They treat them as outcasts because the majority of the town is white and racist, while Atticus is defending a black man in court.

The people of Maycomb start to treat Atticus and the children with hostility and criticism as Atticus defends Tom Robinson, a black man accused of raping a white woman. They face prejudice and discrimination from the townspeople who disapprove of Atticus taking on the case and for allowing his children to be exposed to such controversy.
