15 year-old Dorothy Counts, the only Black student in her newly desegregated school, is harassed by white students. Family friend Dr. Edwin Tompkins accompanies her. North Carolina, USA, 1957

Crazy to think this was as late as 1957. Now that the US has one of those harassing kids behind the wheel, you should be back in the '50s within a couple of years, yeah?

nah, I don't think you're correct. I think it won't take more than a couple of months.

And this is what they believe made America great

And they are making it great again!

She's still alive

All those mother fuckers behind her are enthusiastic fascists now.
- Only one boy in that horrible photograph did ask Dorothy for forgiveness. They became good friends. He died in 2010.
  Shame it seems hate fueled mfs live forever.

this photo always makes me so sad... make sure to show it to all your white friends.

I'm so impressed by the strength of character she has to go up against the world like this.. A 15 year old girl? What a remarkable person.
I don't find the picture sad, on the contrary, it's goddamn inspiring!

Teenagers in 1957 would be early to mid 80s now.

Those people are our grandparents.

Just think about how many of your sweet doting grandparents were in situations just like this that weren't photographed.

How many of our grandparents strung the rope for the lynch mob?

How many of our grandparents were hurling racial slurs at the tops of their lungs?

All those anti DEI conservatives probably mad they’re being remembered as racists

Patrioric Americans makin' sure everbuddy gits Freedum!!

"These black people are a nuisance, and they're everywhere."
But YOU brought them here! Against their will. At gunpoint.
"I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that. gOd bLeSS aMeRiCa MaKe GrAtE aGin... oR sUmPTiN' LiKe ThAt."

that kid behind and to her right is having some feelings for the first time ever.

The kid that looks the Barack Obama?

Did they really need to change their family name to Counts just to prove she belonged in school, though?

Seems like every time white people get a chance to show their inferiority and inferiority complexes, they jump headfirst into it.
These are the people who used to vote Democrat, then when the Equal Rights Act was passed, they flocked towards the republican party.

This is what reagan leaned on when kickstarting his 1980 presidential campaign, deep in the south, political fanfare with a dog whistle, the following exact words: "Make America great again."
