Scout and Jem learn a lot of lessons in this book but the biggest one that they learned was that things cant always go their way. When scout and Jem wanted tom to win and just knew that he was going to win the trial it didn't work out and tom was guilty at the end and convicted. They learn that lesson a couple of times in this book. They learn that no matter what they say they cant change maycomb county into not being racist. Even though they are white they cant change the racist society.
Scout learns about how Tom got shot 17 times and he died because of their racist society. Atticus said to aunt alexandra "Toms dead" (235). Even though tom is a nice kind hearted man he got blamed for something he didnt do even though he didnt do it, the judge decides that he is black and that he is guilty because if his race. Scout learns that lesson that even though people are nice and dont do anything but try to help others, they get blamed for stupid things because of their race.
