Short Story Lonely road. Cold, dark and lonely road. I must say that it’s been a long while since I found some. What a really damn cold night. Maybe I’ll just head back to my way to Graham´s and try to get some sleep. With luck, and a lot of it, Roberto has thrown away some kind of blanket or dirty t-shirt. I’ll make it. It’s just one more night. However it’s really intriguing how lonely this road is. I usually see plenty of ours at this times, trying to found some too.

We passed the demolished three universities, shopping mall, chapel and lots of houses. In each one of them, she had a really terrible expression on her face, as if she was watching some kind of horror movie. I couldn’t get it. This was so normal to me, so traditional.

    The event that I have chosen is the Freedom Rides, which started May 4, 1961 and ended December 10, 1961. The Freedom Rides were inspired by the Greensboro Sit-ins, and started with 13 African American and Caucasian protestors riding buses into the segregated south to challenge the lack of enforcement to the Supreme Court ruling that segregated buses were unconstitutional. While the activists were peaceful the local law enforcement and people against their message were not. The activists were beaten at several stops along their journey from Anniston to Birmingham with chains, bricks, and bats by Ku Klux Klan (KKK) members in Alabama, and activists that were injured would be refused hospital treatment.
