Friday in school we sadly were not able to have class due to the half day
Today in class we learned about the scottsboro trials. We broke up into 5 groups and were given names like "Ruby Bates" and "Victoria Price" and we had to write journal entries at several points in the trial. My group was Jess, Laurel, and Camille. We were Bates and wrote about how she accused them but it was false because the evidence that was found was really from her boyfriend the night before. she also felt guilty because even though it was a false accusation they boys, all except for one were sentenced to death.
