Talk by Tanya Landman  – author in residence

Can this much-loved book be viewed as profoundly racist?  Tanya Landman discusses the novel in the context of Harper Lee’s recently published earlier work Go Set a Watchman. “To Kill a Mockingbird”, she says, “gives an insight into the subject [of racism] but the way in which it is still read demonstrates that we have a very long way to go before we can declare ourselves to be truly colour blind.”
