Battle Royal
I honestly hated this story. I do not like to think that people can be that cruel to anyone. The way they treated the girl was disgusting and the way the boys where treated was worse. It was hard to read how they were tortured for entertainment. I would have rather died than go through any of that. It was even harder to understand how the boy still had the courage and strength to read his speech, I would not have been able to survive what he did. That was a sad and cruel story.

Sad, cruel, and unfair, but that was the reality for many blacks during that time, especially in the South. Even today, I am sometimes taken back when I see the residue of such horrible times still peering up into today's world.
