Ann adjusted the antenna last night so I could watch To Kill a Mockingbird.
Atticus Finch has fought the good fight, but he's lost. Tom Robinson, a black man wrongly accused of raping a white woman, will go to jail. As the white audience (seated in the lower courtroom), files out of the room, Atticus collects his belongings.
But, the black audience (seated on the balcony) stays put the entire time. As Atticus prepares to leave the courtroom, the crowd begins to stand up. Reverend Sykes turns to Atticus' daughter, Jean Louise (called Scout) and says "Miss Jean Louise, stand up. Your father's passing."
That's powerful, tore that up. Always have, always will.
