Atticus is sitting on the porch when Scout, Jem, and Calpurnia return from church.
Calpurnia?
She took Jem and Scout to 'her' church.
The experience at Calpurnia's church helps Jem and Scout see Calpurnia in a new light, as they witness her in her element among her own community. They gain a deeper appreciation for her skills in managing a different environment and begin to understand her as a multi-dimensional person with her own identity and relationships outside of their household.
Calpurnia is the Finch home's housekeeper and cook who also acts as Jem and Scout's nanny.
Lulu is a lady from the church who informs Calpurnia that the kids, Jem and Scout, are at the courthouse. She tells Calpurnia in a harsh tone that the children should not have been brought to the trial.
In "To Kill a Mockingbird," Jem and Scout go to church with Calpurnia in Chapter 12. This chapter explores the theme of racial segregation and the different worlds that Jem and Scout experience in their small town of Maycomb.
Lulu
Aunt Alexandra wants to dismiss Calpurnia because she believes that Calpurnia is not the right influence on Scout and Jem and does not fit in with the family's social status and reputation. Aunt Alexandra thinks it is best for the children to have a proper white governess instead of Calpurnia, who is black.
Aunt Alexandra wanted Calpurnia fired because she believed that Calpurnia wasn't a suitable role model for Scout due to their racial and social differences. Aunt Alexandra also wanted to assert her authority and influence over the household as a female figure, and did not see Calpurnia as being necessary once she moved in to help care for Scout and Jem.
Calpurnia is the cook in 'To Kill a Mockingbird.' She is the Finch family's housekeeper and cares for Scout and Jem.
Scout lives with her father, Atticus Finch, her brother, Jem Finch, and their housekeeper, Calpurnia, in the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee.
