Chapter 12

In this chapter a happy family were separated  because the schools closed. Betty and Phillips had to send  their children to different places so they could continue studying. Something that I noticed in this chapter is that it must be terrible for a parent to tell their children " The whites do not want black kids to be with their kids" but he pointed that they could be good as anyone else. I think the author is trying to show that  getting education is important because even thought the school was closed, they continued studying.
