How far have we really come from this story?
Sure, on the outside, America appears to be less racist and segregated than we used to, but are we in reality or just in appearances?
How often do you see a group of kids from different races hanging out together? How often do you see a group of kids all of the same race hanging out together?
How much racism is in our thoughts, but not in our words or actions.
Often times we a segregated not by our prejudices, but simply but our choices based on comfortably.
The story of Richard Wright is sad, but so is most America today.
