Chapter 23 Bob Ewell's Humiliation


Bob Ewell thought he was going to fool everyone in town in believing that Tom Robinson had raped and assaulted his daughter. But because of his reputation as a cruel, lazy, and ignorant person, it was easy for Atticus to humiliate him in the courtroom. His humiliation turned into anger which then turned into retaliation and eventually ended his life. Humiliation can
have a very bad effect on someone causing them to do strange things from suicide to murder. I've been embarrassed before but I don't think I have really been humiliated.
Vocabulary word for this chapter is furtive which means sneaky.
This is a story about what it means to be humiliated on reality TV.
