Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing, reading, and thinking on a weekly basis in an informal setting.

White people wanted schools segregated because they wanted to keep the white race pure and provide white students the best education. The black people wanted schools desegregated because they were done with being treated unfairly. They wanted a better quality school and education. Kristen brings her story in the history because she is married to a multiracial man of American Indian descent. This is a man that she has children with. This is what some white people tried to prevent, the mixing of races. White leaders don't believe in mixing they tend to look down on people that do.

They kept school segregated because they did not want history to repeat itself. They were afraid if they educated the black children not only would they be smart enough to fight they would not work for the change they were getting.
