Abstract

This research discusses Atticus Finch efforts in solving racial discrimination in Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird. In this study, the researcher discussed three problems. The first objective is to discuss Atticus Finch’s reason for defending Tom Robinson amidst racial discrimination. The second objective is to discuss Atticus Finch efforts to fight against racial discrimination. The third objective is to find out the positive impact of Atticus Finch efforts against racial discrimination. The researcher used qualitative methods in this study and adopted the objective theory. The objective theory looks at or examines literary works from an intrinsic perspective that builds literary works, such as themes, characters and characterizations, setting, plot, and style of language. As a result, the researcher finds that Atticus Finch did everything he could to defend Tom Robinson with zeal and dedication, even though they ultimately faced great difficulties in seeking justice in a court dominated by prejudice and racism. In the process, Atticus became a symbol of courage and integrity, delivering a powerful message about the importance of fighting injustice and fighting for justice for all people Penelitian ini membahas upaya Atticus Finch melawan diskriminasi rasial dalam novel To Kill a Mockingbird karya Harper Lee. Dalam penelitian ini, peneliti membahas tiga masalah, 1). Alasan Atticus Finch membela Tom Robinson ditengah diskriminasi rasial, 2). Perjuangan Atticus Finch melawan diskriminasi rasial dan 3). Dampak positif dari perjuangan Atticus Finch melawan diskriminasi rasial. Peneliti menggunakan metode kualitatif dalam penelitian ini dan teori objektif. Teori objektif memandang atau menelaah karya sastra dari segi intrinsik yang membangun karya sastra, seperti tema, tokoh dan penokohan, latar, alur, dan gaya bahasa. Hasilnya, penulis menemukan fakta bahwa Atticus Finch melakukan segala yang dia bisa untuk membela Tom Robinson dengan tekun dan berdedikasi, meskipun akhirnya mereka menghadapi kesulitan besar dalam mencari keadilan di pengadilan yang didominasi oleh prasangka dan rasisme. Dalam prosesnya, Atticus menjadi simbol keberanian dan integritas, memberikan pesan yang kuat tentang pentingnya memerangi ketidakadilan dan memperjuangkan keadilan untuk semua orang.
