What kinds of struggles/hardships might the characters in the novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, go through?

Racism, Sexism

Explanation:

Through out the novel, To Kill A Mockingbird, the reader witnesses many struggles and hardships including but not limited to racism, sexism, and poverty. Sadly, Maycomb county was based in deep south Alabama in a time where racism was quite prevalent, which led to the incarceration of Tom Robinson, despite several pieces of evidence that proved him innocent. Because of the setting, life proved hard for Atticus Finch and his two children who were taunted with harsh words against them such as "Ni##er Lover." The narrator, Scout Finch, faced sexism as well, seeing she hardly ever wore dresses, and did activities that normally suited boys in this time period. Her aunt Alexandra, being the most persistent in getting Scout to change, even went as far as to move in with the Finches to change her.
