It was scary, but we sat down at the lunch counter and waited to be served. It wasn’t fair that this diner refused to serve blacks, and we decided to sit at that counter until they did serve us. We didn’t make a scene, didn’t yell, didn’t break stuff. We just sat there and waited. Angry people came up and hit us, yelled in our faces, and even dumped a milkshake on my friend’s head! But we stayed. After three straight days, the diner finally decided to serve us!
