Separate but not equal

I use this book as a reading selection for my middle school students. It is a great read to teach the genre of historical non-fiction. My students enjoyed learning about the history of education for black Americans and it helped them to appreciate the educational opportunities that they participate in now as Americans.

Seperate but not equal

To me this book is one of the best books i've ever read.This book is about the struggles of young african americans and their struggles with education.In 1957 they tried to get black students to go in a white school and they had to walk to school by a wall of soldiers.This book is also good because each chapter is a different story about another persons struggle. This is a very good book.
