from Avenues Radio · host Giovanni Palacio
Send us Fan MailIn the first episode of Dear Literature, Lalie explores what justice really means through To Kill a Mockingbird, asking whether being just is about following the law or listening to conscience when the law fails. Through Atticus Finch’s quiet integrity, Scout’s instinctive sense of fairness, and the moral fractures of Maycomb, this episode weaves literature with the ideas of Plato and Aristotle to examine the tension between legality and morality. Law Through Literature invites listeners to see justice not as a verdict, but as a daily practice—and to consider the courage it takes to refuse the world as it is.
