Eric Swan-Personal Narrative

141 Words1 Page

It was March 1963 at Mississippi State University. I was going to class early to get in some last minute cramming before the test over chapter 14. Even though my friend Eric Swan and I study all night. Eric was my best friend from high school. Eric and I did everything together, except when he was with his racist friends. Eric always left the dorm around midnight and would come back right before class. I didn’t know where he was going until after class that day, I saw a white KKK cloak in his room. I knew now and it scared me to think he is apart of that group of racist murderers. That meant he can’t know about me going to help the basketball team get to the NCAA tournament next week. I would have to make up a plan.
