Arthur Radley, who never emerged from his house, was a victim of social discrimination. He was arrested in his teenage years along with a gang of boys for locking Maycomb's beadle in an outhouse. The judge decided to send him to the state industrial school as the punishment against him. Despite the discrimination against him and the trouble he caused, Arthur did not lose his privileges of having fair trials in court. He received a reasonable sentence and was given an opportunity for a better education and future by the society. The consequence of the social discrimination was that Arthur became a source of strange evil and gossips for a limited number of individuals in Maycomb. Jem and Scout made Arthur and his family's lives into a little dramatic re-enactment as Miss Stephanie Crawford spread rumours about h

Both Arthur Radley and Tom Robison were main victims of Maycomb's discrimination. Despite the fact they had never seen each other, they shared many similarities and differences. The first similarity of their lives was that most people assumed their guilt without any evidence of reliable knowledge. Jem, Scout and Dill believed the rumour about Boo without further examining any evidence. Tom Robison's guilt was never doubted by anyone before the trial. People automatically assumed he was guilty and wanted to execute a lynching before his day in court. The second similarity was the contributions of the two men. The night of the pageant, Arthur risked his life to saving Jem and Scout from the attack of Bob Ewell. Tom performed chores for Mayella free of charge almost every time he walked by her house. He realized the suffering of Mayella and decided to help her when he can. Both of the victims were assumed guilt with no real evidence, yet they made generous contributions to the community. The difference between the two characters ironically existed in their similarities. In Arthur's case, only the kids, not the adults, believe in the rumours about him. Instead the parents tried to teach their kids to leave Arthur alone and respect him. However the whole town, with the expectation of a few people, believed Bob Ewell's story without looking for any proof indicating Tom actually raped Mayella. Racial discrimination turned a whole town of people against the victim whereas social discrimination was carried out by only a few individuals. The second difference is that the contributions of the two men were regarded very differently by others. Arthur killed Bob to save the kids. In appreciation, the sheriff of town decided to hide the truth in order to protect Arthur, who was the innocent. However Tom's contributions turned against him and were reasons he was brought to death. He tried to help Mayella whenever he could. Mayella not only showed no gratitude, but also accused
