This is a painting of two black children. They are probably scared and probably have a bare minimum education. Their neighbor hood is most likely in constant danger of terrorization.
This is a photo from the 1900s of a school for black children. Compare it to the school for white children below.
This image shows how black children are a bit less educated than the white child writing next to her. This might be because the white child has more access to educational resources than the black child whose parents are likely not to be educated.
This is a famous painting of Ruby Bridges walking to school with four white body guards. You can see in the back ground a thrown tomato (supposedly at her) and racist graffiti. She is known for going to a all whites school.
