racism 60s vs 00s

The two events were similar in many ways. In both cases discrimination was used in a high school setting. In the Central High School incident there seemed to be a larger protest with the feds more involved. The lives of the nine black kids were in danger of the white mob. The nooses in the newer story seemed wrong, to me it seemed to be to harsh to be a joke. It puts a fearful memory in many people.
