Racism was a big part of the last few chapters and the way they show it. Now in reality and in books it always says how White people are better than Black people for some reason even though there are black people that do have more money and are happier than White people. In the last 3 chapters it showed that most of the White people in there ton don't like Black people but use them like there slaves.
Atticus is one of the few who seem to stand up for the black people. Scout said the "N" word and was told not to say it. Even though everyone else said it her dad was sticking up for a black person and probably didn't want his daughter saying those things. And when Mayella told Tom she would give him a nickel if he helped her shows that they think of Black people as Slaves. In court the people seemed to use the term "nigger" which is a mean way of saying black people which told everyone they didn't like them infront of Tom Robinson.
