Read the excerpt from Warriors Don't Cry.
As we approached behind them, we could see only the
clusters of white people that stretched for a distance of
two blocks along the entire span of the school building.
My mind could take in the sights and sounds only one
by one: flashing cameras, voices shouting in my ears,
men and women jostling each other, old people, young
people, people running, uniformed police officers
walking, men standing still, men and women waving
their fists, and then the long line of uniformed soldiers
carrying weapons just like in the war movies I had
seen.
