discuss what you believe you would have done if you were in Attitcus' and/or the Freedom Riders' shoes? Would you have taken a stand? Why or why not?

This is really a question you need to answer. I would like to believe I would have had the moral fortitude that Atticus did but I'm not sure that I do. It takes a special person to risk so much to fight a losing battle. This is probably why the character of Atticus is a hero to so many readers.
