Whose Phone Is This?
EXAMPLE: Scout Finch, To Kill a Mockingbird
1. “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” by War Scout doesn’t understand why different classes of people can’t be friends. For example, her failed attempt to befriend Walter Cunningham leaves her perplexed. 2. “Just a Girl” by No Doubt Scout wants to resist Aunt Alexandra’s attempts to feminize her and this anthem of girl power and questioning of traditional gender expectations is fitting for Scout. 3. “Waiting on the World to Change” by John Mayer In the Jim Crow South of Scout’s childhood, it seems like there’s little she can do to evoke a positive social change. This, of course, isn’t true. One person, we discover, has the power to change the hearts and minds of many people.
