In which John Green teaches you about Harper Lee’s famous (and only) novel, To Kill a Mockingbird. John will cover a bit about Harper Lee’s personal life, (seeing as this novel has some autobiographical elements) and her long association with Truman Capote, who figures as a character in the book. You’ll get an overview of the plot, and we’ll talk a bit about Mockingbird as an example of bildungsroman (again(man, this description is heavy on parentheses)) and Southern Gothic, and look into the novel as a commentary on the racism and patriarchy of the Alabama in which Harper Lee grew up.

I wonder if in another world, John Green is an excellent English teacher.
Reading the book, I saw Atticus more complexly than simply a hero. Perhaps it is just my perspective but while he seemed to be a sweet father, he was not at all perfect and still reinforced the stereotypes of the time
When John says sitzpinkler, I immediately thought of abundance of katherines. Anyone else?
Vader is the Dutch word for father..
He deserves way more likes and subscribers tbh (compared to jake paul or rice gum <---what do they do for our society??)
Instructions not clear… foot stuck in cotton gin….

I loved this open letter episode because I’m half German.
Does anyone know what kind of program the “designs” were used for?
Every crash course literature video: White men are bad
ROLL TIDE!
You should do a follow up lesson on Go Set A Watchman. An analysis of Scout’s new struggle with her father might translate well considering the political civil cold war we are facing today.
I see your Abundance of Katherines reference
Am I the only one who didn’t even finish it cuz it was boring?! *not american so didn’t study it in school*
Vader is actually Dutch for father. The German word for father is Vater.
Well this was unenjoyable.

Vader? Vater? Si,iliar, but not the same.
