Darry and Ponyboy have flaws in their relationship, because they don’t understand each other. The greasers and socs are always creating conflict with each other, just because they’re not in the same group/class. Finally people don’t know when to stop, and this is mostly because of greasers v. socs. All of these reasons are why divided communities is the most critical theme.

In the story People look at George and Lennie as weird and strange because they looked out for each other. This was uncommon for two men to do during the great depression especially since Lennie was mentally unstable and George had no relation with him. In those times people like lennie were not common and many people looked at him as a freak, but only because they did’nt take the time to get to know him and realize that he was just a little different. Society often misunderstands situations because everyone always jumps to conclusions, for instance in the beginning of the story Lennie reaches out to touch a woman's dress, when she screamed it scared Lennie so by instinct he squeezed. By doing this Lennie also scared the woman, when George got Lennie to let go of the dress the woman ran to town and told everyone he tried to rape her, because of this Lennie and George had to flee the town and search for a new

People were at the point of not even believing Moshie. He would say things, beautiful things but the prisoners refused to listen. “ But people not only refused to believe his tales, they refused to listen” (Wiesel 7).

After saving the children’s lives, Scout walks Boo home, she reaches the porch and realizes when she turns around that the whole town of Maycomb is visible from the porch. Scout realizes that “Atticus was right. One time he said you never really know a man until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them.

Ever since Scout was born, she had always had this fear Boo, however she did not have a specific reason for it. Near the end of the Novel, Scout has matured and now knows what Atticus meant when he said “ if you can learn a simple trick, Scout, you 'll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view-” (Lee 32).

Many people will say they dislike someone because of their personality just to hide that on the inside they really disapprove of their color. Those who conform to such idiotic thoughts based on race are the people that prevent this country from progressing due to their unwillingness to critically think wholeheartedly about significant racial issues, but choose to rely on past false perceptions without understanding the complexities of racial issues..
