    A reaction and summary to the book "Warriors Don't Cry", the book is about the intergration of Central High School in Little Rock, Arkansas in 1957

    The book, Warriors Don't Cry, is a sad, yet encouraging story of a courageous young lady. At the age of thirteen Melba Patillo Beals volunteered to integrate Central high in Little Rock, Arkansas. On May 17, 1954 the Supreme Court ruled in Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas that separate schools for whites and blacks were illegal. Melba often dreamed of seeing the inside of Central High. The best education and preparation for college was believed to happen inside of those doors. When she finally told her grandmother and mother that she volunteered to integrate they began to fear for Melba's life. This memoir of Melba's diary and her mother's notes explain how she decided to integrate with eight other students and the profound struggles they faced in every day life. In 1957, her fate began. Two weeks after the first attempt to integrate Central High the "Little Rock Nine" stepped foot into the huge and overwhelming school. The nine of them faced extreme violence every day. The teachers and students never let them walk by without some kind of rude comment. Melba was tripped, kicked, spat on, and verbally abused. Every day she spent in Central High there was a new struggle to overcome. She held strong and would only cry when she was behind the doors of her bedroom. The only place she could escape reality. Melba was one of "God's Warriors".…

Central High School was more than just getting nine black kids into an all white school, it was about giving black people as a whole the same opportunities whites…

    Executive Order 9066

    Discrimination is when one group of people treats another group unfairly because of some type of prejudice or hatred. It can happen when people have bad feelings about another person or group of people based on their race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, etc. Unfortunately, the US has a long history of discrimination and even if something seemed like the right thing to do at the time, discrimination is hurtful and often very unfair. This is especially true when the discrimination is institutionalized, or a part of the law or government. An example of this is Executive Order 9066 which was enacted during World War II, just after Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. When Japan made war on the US on that fateful day, December 7, 1941, the US government and citizens became so scared that they allowed a form of discrimination to occur that was very harmful to thousands of native Japanese and Japanese-Americans. Executive Order 9066 and its details are a part of American history that many people do not know about, and the details of this order, in addition to the past and present affects, demonstrate a time in American history when a terrible case of discrimination was allowed to occur.…

    Some families of “powhitetrash” lived on her farm land just behind the school. Momma made sure all of her children addressed the adults in a polite manner. It was almost an unspoken law, if you will, none of her children dared to violate the rule. Everyone knew about the accepted law, except for the “powhitetrash” children. At this point in the story, one might think it to be about the appalling and tragic history African Americans had undergone throughout the years. One might have even thought the end to be quite predictable, possibly concluding in an act of violence that could potentially start an uproar in society. I know I did.…

    Two Ways To Belong In America Analysis

    For his father, he took it a little harder than his son did, academically, because of the teacher’s lack of understanding of their culture’s way of teaching the children. But socially, the son, Wind-Wolf, took the criticism of his peers and his friend’s mother hard, because he was afraid to live his life according to his culture, publicly and privately, in which he’s altering his culture and what he does according to the judgement being passed and the “American beliefs.” His father states that,”He is not culturally disadvantaged, but he is culturally “different”(Lake 76). Being picked on at this of an age by other children, and even adults, it’s bound to tear him down, and that is very discouraging, fortunately for others, they aren’t phased by judgement.

    Zeitoun

    Have you even judged someone on who he or she is or what they looked like? And have you ever had a bad experience or traumatic experience happens and you looked for someone or something to blame, but in reality there was nothing to blame? Well, a natural disaster can be blamed on no one, but in times like that emotions run wild and blame can be put on someone who fits a certain profile. Racism and Hurricane Katrina were two forces that clashed together to create an even bigger problem for the victims. This is caused by an insecurity of the situation at hand. In the book Zeitoun by Dave Eggers, racism and racial profiling is the underlying themes in the story. These themes are also the underlying themes of people who are subjected to this every day of their lives. Racism and profiling in America today are two growing factors due to the terrorist attack on September 11th, the war in the Middle East, and the fact that most people think that people from the Middle East are terrorists. Zeitoun’s story should be told so that the people who are not subjected to racism and profiling can get a taste of how a person who has done nothing but good for himself, his family and neighbors can just instantly be subjected to misperceptions of others because they are scared from a traumatic experience. To judge another person without knowing them is wrong, even though everyone does it, but to accuse a person of something without knowing is worse. Zeitoun was accused of crimes, thrown in jail, thought to be a terrorist, and treated not as an American citizen, but as an alien.…
