Who is Hitler in 'To Kill a Mockingbird'?

The most commonly brought up current event is Hitler's suppression of the Jewish race. Hitler is trying to rid the world of Jews, as well as Gypsies, because he believes they are an inferior race. Basically, the same thing is happening in the US, just on a smaller scale. White people believe that Black people are inferior, and blacks aren't given as many rights or privileges. Both are dealing with the suppression of a certain race. Going back to the book, Mrs. Gates tells her students that the suppression of any race is not right, and she strongly opposes it. She, nonetheless, treats black people without respect. Scout recognizes this and understands that what Mrs. Gates does is different from what she says.
