'Mockingbird' fans aren't happy that Atticus Finch turned out to be a racist

Finch – portrayed on film by Gregory Peck – became a civil rights icon, and inspired generations of young people to become lawyers.

Brock Peters as Sergeant Brown. He would later be known for his role as Tom Robinson in “To Kill a Mockingbird”. This was his first film role. He also dubbed singing for his “Carmen Jones” costar Roy Glenn who plays "Rum" Daniels

@kcarr2015 True - but in that case, as in the case of #BrockPeters, the character is intended to be shown as racist - or at the very least, highly prejudiced. Vulcans are often shown as being hypocrites, espousing logic and other philosophies while frequently just as governed by emotions and pettiness as any human. One thing I think Enterprise did very well was flesh out the inconsistencies in Vulcan culture - both demonstrating the tremendous diversity of thought within Vulcan society and the fact that many Vulcans are just total dickheads 😂🖖
