The trial in "To Kill a Mockingbird" revolves around the false accusation of a black man named Tom Robinson for the rape of a white woman, Mayella Ewell.

For me, the two main story lines are the story of Boo Radley and the story of Tom Robinson. They live in a town that has " a rigid and time- honored code of society" ( Atticus's courtroom speech). This code prevents the townspeople from really seeing Tom Robinson and also Boo Radley. Atticus has always told Scout that " you never know a man unless you stand in his shoes and walk around in them." In " To Kill A Mockingbird" Scout and Jem learn to see both Tom Robinson and Boo Radley as " nice men", to see beyond society's definition of them. Unfortunately, the jurors could not get past their prejudices to see the true man that Tom Robinson was. So, Scout is our future, how we would like to be when we mature. The jurors still need to learn to see beyond their prejudices
