Autumn Sunsets DO NOT This Atomic Age ERASE!!! The Family Farden

Suggested Supplementary Reading lists are on my desk. Please take one before leaving. ‑‑‑ Doodlebug ‑‑‑ Write a brief statement on how you personally feel about the problem of integration in the schools DO NOT ERASE
Integration
Although I personally am white and therefore out of this, I believe in integration. I think we should go along with the times and be more tolerant of other races. They have just as much right to be human. After all, they are voters too. The G.O. of which I am President of, is proud to live in a democracy. Harry A. Kagan (The Students Choice)
1. How stuppid can you get? A. Bussing kids to school miles away. 1. Just to juggle it around. 2. Then go back to the filthy slums. (After school) 2. Can't be juggle like diferent color marbles. 3. It takes time. A. Lincoln. (Slaves) B. Rome. (Wasn't build in a day) Teenager
I'm proud to be of African decent but I can't stand the Portoricans. Anonimus
Good morning, all of a sudden they woke up! It's about time! But they're doing it from the wrong end! Well, well, it's all in fun anyways and gives kids a chance not to do any work. They should give Boycotes every day to stay away from school! (Ha-ha, joke!) Lou Martin
I think what they're afraid of is if we sit close to one another in school we’ll intermarry and what about the color of the children. But that's dumb because it's all personal magnetism. Linda Rosen
What's the good of it, there still prejudice on the outside, it's in the cards. At lease in my old school it was close to where I live so I could catch up on some extra sleep but got nothing out of it. Edward Williams, Esq.
A lot of feeling is flying around loose and they've got to pin it down. It just let's off steam. Doodlebug
This school is about 65-35 in favor whites but if the score was 50-50 and with more colored
teachers then maybe it would tip the scale the other way, but if it gets to 35-65 in favor us then we got to start all over again to get it back on a even kiel.
We had a knifing on this subject on our block. It only makes us lose respect for school more and brings out more fuly words like nigger kike and spick which are not a good vocabullary.
The world is too complicated and my whole future is a mess. You should see our kitchen. Going to a different school is no use. Pairing us off like buddies in the water for swiming. Suppose you don't care for that type of a person, why should you sit with them? They just want their name in the papers. Stander
Why are there no Puerto Rican teachers? Why is there no Puerto Rican President? (the G.O.) Or Principle? The answer is Integration! An American Citizen
Non whites Also have rights But not with fights. Poet
People are inborn with hate for certain people and you can't force people to be more tolerant by legal laws, only by wishes. This country is a melting Pot with many opportunities to win respect from the class. Jose Rodriguez
With the "bomb" going up and our "morals" going down what's all the fusst? Charles H. Robbins
I think all whites blacks and browns and yellows should get together and intergrate against the reds (Commies) and pinkos. Dropout
The trouble starts with where we live and not where we go to school. I mean crumbly tennements. Frank Allen
G.D. (a Negro in our Home Room) was huging J.N. (a White on the stairs) and C.B. (a Porto Rican) with C.R. (a White). I don't mind but my parents are against it. Guess Who
Intergration is a Big Joke, who they think they kidding? What about Jobs? As far as the Future, forget it! Minority
God made us all alike inside. It's only the skin that counts. We can all try to look better in spite of obstickles. Some races are more thinner than others. That's where a teacher comes in, to make us feel equal by looking up to her. The above is my reason for being an English teacher. Vivian Paine
It's not up to me, I have enough problems without it. Rusty
I have this colored friend Betty well, I never thought about it one way or the other until one day I went over her house for the first time and her father opened the door and I was surprized to see he was colored. Because, to me I was so used to her she always looked normal. Lazy Mary
Compared to the school I came from which was Unintergrated it's like night & day here. We have teachers here that really try to teach you whenever they can and books they give out we can take home with us. And the classes in different rooms to go to, all the comforts of home. Transfer
If they just leave it up to kids it wouldn't even arise. Carole (used to be Carmelita) Blanca
They should keep themselves to themselves. We don't need them. We have our own life to live. We did without them for a long time, why should we change now? They only cause trouble. A Negro Student
In Social Stud. we discust it to death, I'm sick and tired of the whole thing. Last time I'm writting!
Personaly I got intergrated a long time ago by swaping homework with all the kids in my class. Failing
Can you guess by my hand writing if I'm white or not? A Bashful Nobody

Oh, my beloved, if you but knew ... I am so near, and yet so far ... in this very room, a heart-throb away ... So ready ... so ready for you & all you stand for ... Last Sunday I took the subway to your stop (Your address is on the Time Card) and I walked back & forth across the street from your house . . . back and forth . . . just to see where you live. For a moment I saw you in the window. . . . But perhaps it wasn't even you. My heart was throbbing with love and sadness ... If I could die for you! . . . Like the Lady of Shalot you read to us, floating dead on the river under his window, and Lancelot never knowing . . . never knowing . . . saying only "She has a lovely face, the Lady of Shalot . . ."
I wonder if I’ll ever dare to give you this letter ... for you to take into your hand . . . My Real Self in your keeping . . . Maybe then you
will look upon me and know me . . . know me!!!! "Alice", you would say—"lovely Alice, the first time you walked into Room 309 I felt it ... It was meant to be . . ." Paul, my beloved, I feel it too and my pulses are throbbing with all that is inside me. Remember when you held the door open for me and my elbow touched your suit?
Sometimes I feel I'm the only person in the World or even the Universe . . . There's no one but I and I want to jump up to the sky higher and higher and throw my arms and yell like I'm crazy or maybe cry and weep . . . I don't know what it is but I can't bear it. "I am half sick of shadows, said the Lady of Shalot. . . ." That morning when you were talking to Miss Barrett in the Coffee Shoppe I wanted to die or kill her, although she's a very nice teacher. In my bed at night I pray to the ceiling, Dear Ceiling, make him love me or notice me in class where I sit . . . Make me worthy of him . . . Make him take me in his bold and throbbing embrace! . . . When I look at the cracks in the ceiling and how ugly everything is I think it's unreal, my house and my parents . . . Real life is someplace else . . . on moonlit terraces . . . in tropic gardens . . . foreign cities . . . darkling woods. . . . We are standing on a darkling hill together and your hungry lips seek

Answer the following questions at the end of the chapter
Dear Mr. Barringer,
your stop having looked it up on your Time Card…. I hope you don’t mind the presumtion …. I walked back and forth across the street from your house back and forth …. And I thought I saw cliché you and my heart was throbbing with omit this love I bear for you …. no caps I feel so deeply the Beauty and cliché Truth of the poetry you read in class …. I alone …. Especially such lines like “ She has a lovely face, the Lady of Shalot. ….” I think of you all the time …. word? at night, darkling, I pray to be worthy not clear of you and all that you stand for …. I believe we understand each other and awkward no one else ….And if ever you need me to die for you I will gladly do so …. I hope you don’t think me presumptious but I have to speak out the truth …. the only truth …. Sincerely yours, Alice Blake
Alice— Thank you for your note. Watch spelling and punctuation; you tend to use a series of dots to avoid it! Watch repetitions and clichés. You might look up the spelling at the Lady in Tennyson’s “Idylls of the King” – P B.
