Topic > The Rosewood Paper - 1346

In the case of racial violence and rosewood in January 1923 lynching was common in the United States but in the Southern United States two years before Representative lc dyer of Missouri introduced a bill to the House of Representatives to make lynching a federal crime. Dyer acted as a voice for blacks, the bill passed the House, but not in the South, they prevented a vote that resulted in the measure leaving the state to deal with lynching. Although lynching had declined by sixty-four in 1921, it ended fifty-seven in 1922 and lynching had fifty-one black and six white victims. What I don't understand is that fifty-one black people, not to mention the ones who were shot to death, and I believe most of those who died had nothing to do with it, the things they deserved they were hard. Lynchings, screaming, burning, and whatever else were just plain bad. In 1923 several people were murdered. The first week of January, Rosewood was the center that caused a riot, a massacre, between the races causing a race war between the two. In one scene in the film a little white boy was friends with a black boy and Eveverett's father didn't. I want him to act or be friends with him in the movie, black people were not slaves so why couldn't they be friends, I guess because of the history between the two races, the black witches didn't do anything wrong but tried to get the their own rights. Fanny cheats on her husband with an inferior man who, because he thinks he has a sour relationship with married women, they get married if they both cheat on each other. in one scene Fanny runs out of the house drawing attention around her by saying she was raped and beaten, then it was by a black man, then she was just beaten, not beaten, while being beaten b... in the middle of the paper...he did it when the mob came to his house. In one scene the train brakes as it goes to pick up the woman and children because Wright made the conductor go faster. Wright helps the conductor fix the train with a part he got from his Owens shop. In the report Wright did nothing to do with the train to cause it to stop. The children and the woman have boarded the train and as soon as the train takes off Sylvester arrives on horseback. In the report Sylvester didn't go after the train it shows that Sylvester had made it out of rosewood and moved to Texas but I wasn't sure. As the train leaves, they see all these blacks running out of the woods and the crowd running after them and the blacks trying to get on the train with the women and children. Just to say if it were me yes I would have let some of them come on board
