Each and every picture in the Segregation Story Archive was simply heart breaking. Looking at all of the different pictures one thing stood out‚ it was that colored people in some way shape or form were made to feel like they were less than simply because of the color of their skin. The image is sharp and very clear full of both life and imprisonment. It is composed and captured perfectly and vividly you see the children standing there looking out to a place full of life and happiness. The way the
