Allegory: Marc

!Important! This post may have spoilers !
Allegory by definition means an object has some sort of spiritual meaning. In To kill a mocking bird there were some. One allegory that is used in the book is when Jem and Scout build a snowman. Because they run out of snow, Jem uses dirt to finish it. Scout seams suprised as she says something that I am not going to say here because of language. But I can say is that she finds that the snowman is weird. This allegory shows you that as the snowman turns white, that maybe raceism will end and we can all become one.
