All Black Schools

All of the black schools when Rosa was little were crowded and it was really hot. They didn't even have desks to work on, to rest there arm or put there books on. All they had was long church benches. They were so poor that they didn't even have a water fountain in there school. During the school day they would have to ask their teacher if they could go to the colored water fountain to get a drink of water outside. In one colored school they had a huge heater in the middle of the room just to keep them warm during the winter.
