In the book, To Kill a Mockingbird, Scout recognizes Mr. Cunningham in the mob at the jail.
mr. cunningham
In the mob scene, Scout recognizes her friend Walter Cunningham's father, Mr Cunningham as being part of the mob. A mob is about anonymity, and Scout recognizing an individual breaks that.
The mob was listening to Scout because her innocence and fearlessness in approaching Walter Cunningham Sr. humanized him and reminded the men of their own morals and values. By seeing Walter through Scout's eyes, the men were shamed into abandoning their violent intentions and dispersing peacefully.
The affect scout had on the mob is she made them more kind hearted.
The children, Scout and Jem, intervened and approached the mob at the jail where Atticus was guarding Tom Robinson. Scout's innocent conversation with Mr. Cunningham, one of the mob members, and her recognition of other men in the mob led them to disperse and retreat. Her presence humanized the situation and prevented any violence from occurring.
Scout and Jem learn that the mob mentality can instigate violence and anger, but individuals within the group can still recognize their humanity and show compassion. They see how people can be swept up in emotions and lose their sense of reason when acting as part of a group.
