Separate proms (black and white) and separate homecoming queens. They go to school together, but have separate proms and everything. Trying to change people that teach the kids, not trying to teach the kids (they have no problem with it) They never really mingle as a whole; some are ok with races, some are racist. He is trying to allow the children to have social interaction (between white and black), and they will (no need to force) Children know that their parents are racist and they don"t necessarily agree with them, but they. It"s 2008, yet people have the same attitude as 50 years ago still love them. At the school, the white always win: the white kids could say whatever they liked and they were agreed with; whereas the black kids were supposed to stay quiet and were blamed. Some people decide not to go to the prom b/c they think it"s not right .
