Segragation
Whites
I wake up and put on my uniform
Then I jump on the bus
?
Then I arrive at school
I walk into the giant school, all clean and new
We read from brand new text books
?
That’s how I learn
We walk into the cafeteria and have a nutritious lunch
We run into the gym and have fun at recess
?
That is my lunch time
We return to our classroom and read from the text books
We talk and play games
?
We do our homework at home
We work on the homework
We take a nice warm bath
?
That’s our school day
Blacks
I wake up and put on old passed down clothes
Then I start walking
Then I arrive at school ?
I walk into the tiny school, all dirty and brown
We try to read our old ripped text books
That’s how I learn ?
We open our lunch pails and eat our bread and milk
We run outside and play in the woods
That is my lunch time ?
We desperately try to read from the text books
We do our homework
We do chores at home ?
We clean the house
We take a cold shower
That’s our school day ?
