I would be very VERY angry. I don't think that is fair. Just because we have a different skin color we are all the same. We have 1 nose 2 ears and 2 eyes. That is not fair. If I was them I would have a peaceful protest and fight for my rights!!

I would feel both really sad and horribly enraged if a school would not let me in just for the color of my hair, eyes, or skin. It is unfair how some people were treated a long time ago! I am very happy that people have now learned to treat people the same way as other people, even if they look or sound different.

I would feel sad because I want to attend a school that I want to go in and the national guards won't let me in. They should let the black students/me to go in. That's just cold.

I would feel angry because even if you are a girl or a boy you should still have the right to go to school.I also would feel angry because I want to go to school and have a job that will pay me a lot money and I think girls would want to do the same thing and in order to do that you have to go to school and have a deploma.So I would be really angry and if they do not let me go to school I am going to end up like a bum and I don't want that.

If the National Guard stopped me from going to school I would be really sad and mad. I think every one has the right to attend school. It doesn't matter what the color of skin is black or white every one is a living beaning.
