BLOG #6: Scout, as a “mature narrator,” appears upset by the way both the African-American & white churches regard women. Discuss what upsets her so much about each church; define their similarities.

    Scout was deeply upset by the way that both the African-American and white churches regarded women. The reason that she was so upset was because both churches see women as "the enemy". According to the African-American church specifically, women were worse than bootleggers. Both churches also preached an "Impurity of Women" doctrine. Scout said the only difference she noticed was that Reverend Sykes at the African-American church used his pulpit more freely to express his views.
