What does the event with mr.radley and his shotgun show us about racism in maycomb
sesenic [268]

Answer:

The event with Mr. Radley and his gunshot reveals that people in Maycomb were prejudiced and racist.

Explanation:

'To Kill A Mickingbird' is a novel written by Harper Lee. The book centered around the theme of racism.

In Chapter 6, when Dill, Jem and Scoutt tries to peek into Mr. Radley's house, they hear a gunshot in the house. Mr. Radley fired the gun seeing the shadow of a man, perceiving it to be a <em>black man </em>who might have broke into his house to steal collard greens from his garden.

The theme of racism is prevalent in this event as Mr. Radley shots the gun without even thinking twice or looking whose the shadow was. Perceiving that the shadow is of a <em>black man </em>as an intruder brings forth the theme of racism in the novel and also reveals that people in Maycomb were overtly racist.

Now that you've spotted the problems of shift of person and shift of number, revise the paragraph by removing these inconsistenc
mezya [45]

Answer:

In the story, "The Valiant Woman" by J.J. Powers, we find that in judging people, we overlook most of the characteristics that draw us to them, but we do so without realizing it. We can draw inaccurate conclusions about a person by misjudging their facial expressions, their physical stamina, and their obvious personality traits. When people are blinded by false superiority, they judge a person incorrectly because they fail to see them as they really are.

Explanation:

The paragraph has been revised and the inconsistencies with the shift of person and shift of number have been corrected.

It has been rewritten and consistency was maintained by making use of the first person plural when referring to readers, and the third person plural nouns and pronouns when referring to those being judged.
