“A white girl looks at race-the dr. king march” part 2 In the text it claims, “I felt a strange mixture of shame and triumph. Shame for the part of me that was hating them so, so embarrassed by my grandparents prejudices and, then, the part of me that felt triumph because I’d done it. Dr. King’s people were marching through my neighborhood and I’d done something: I’d marched out my front door. At sixteen it was the best I could do.”

“A white girl looks at race-the dr. king march” part 3 The march left the town in shambles.

Marchers walked through a “tunnel of white people” hand and hand, while the white people were shouting racist things like, “Coloreds, go home! Go live with your own kind. Go home!”

“A white girl looks at race-the dr. king march” part 4 Susan walks to the park, then soon after, she sees a army helicopter, She looks down 84th street and sees a truck with a flag on top of it, a Nazi flag.

That’s what I believe in.”
