Moral Courage

While there were quite a few people who thought that what they did was immoral and wrong during the civil rights movement, it was hard for many people to believe. One of them is George A Wallace, former Governor of Alabama, and three presidential candidates. (George Wallace's resume) George Wallace expressed his moral courage and supported his view that separation should take bold and provocative action. Like Harper Lee's book "Atticus Finch to Kill The Mocking Bird", not in Wallace, even if his success exceeded his range, he fears what he believes.

The difference between moral courage and heroism is that moral courage is more personal than heroism. For example, Atticus personally believes that racial inequality is wrong. Halberger writes that "moral courage is designed to keep moral values ​​and norms." Atticus not only spread his moral but also protected the rights of other citizens even if the town did not agree. At the end of her article, Harman Berger wrote, "To the extent that each person contributes to the protection of moral value in daily life, they need to show heroes of moral courage." As more people try to spread active human ethics and protect them, social problems are lessened.

One of the most admirable behaviors human beings can perform is moral courage. Moral courage is aimed at preventing unreasonable handling and deterioration of individuals by strengthening ethical standards and values. The key to moral courage is the ability and motivation to overcome obstacles and to resist the resistance of others. The murder of McKinnbird by Harper Lee was done in the white community of racism by Meikomu, Alabama. Atticus Finch, the father of Jetic and Scout Finch, is an excellent lawyer with a booming economy compared to other communities. Aside aside the racist belief of the community, Atticus agreed to protect a black man named Tom Robinson, who was accused of raping a white woman, Mayella Ewell

The decision of Attikas to protect Tom Robinson was moral courage for various reasons. Atticus is one of a small number of Mecombe who believe in racial equality. It takes a lot of courage to challenge the racist climate of that age. It is much easier to match most people than to win the rights of black people. Another reason why Atticus's behavior can be considered morally brave is that his decision to protect Tom is endangering his family. During this trial, at the Meikomu scouts and gems were constantly harassed by other children and adults. Although Attic knew that his family would face such a terrible treatment, he believed that the lessons learned in this experience far exceeded the much negative factors.
