‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ by Harper Lee has a text to world connection with The Scottsboro Boys’ case ([|Scottsboro Boys]). Tom Robinson and The Scottsboro Boys have a similar case. Both of them were accused of raping white woman and got white juries to give a decision about their case. At the end of the trials, Tom Robinson and The Scottsboro Boys were declared guilty because of rapping.

The cases also have a similar background. They happened in Alabama in 1930’s. In Deep South America in 1930’s white folks considered black people as slaves who have lower level than white folks. This view impacted Tom Robinson’s case and The Scottsboro Boys’ case. It makes the cases were not solved with a fair decision, because there was racism factor inside.
