Blind Society
What is a movie that shows how racism blinds a society to its own sense of justice as in To Kill A Mockingbird?
I’m writing an essay for school and I cannot think of a movie that could relate to To Kill a Mockingbird. My thesis has to do with Societies blinding themselves to their own sense of justice through racism, and if it helps i am using the trial against Tom Robinson.
