The Park School

groups have been limited freedom. They are seen as inferior, and are mistreated. They have barely any rights, and do not know how to get out of it, and if it will ever get better. This happened in Little Rock, Arkansas. Nine students integrated into a school of white children, and they were not treated nicely. They need to know what role to play in order to gain more freedom.

how being resistance to law could ended up in violence. Unarm people being killed who was just protesting peacefully with other millions of people gathered at the place.
