to kill a mockingbird

'Miss Jean Louise?'

I looked around. They were all standing. All around us, and in the balcony on the opposite wall, the Negroes were getting to their feet. Reverend Sykes's voice was as distant as Judge Taylor's:

'Miss Jean Louise, stand up. Your father's passin'.'" ch 21

Despite losing the case, the blacks in the balcony had the courage to stand up for the man who fought a losing battle for them.
