please write a summary on Warriors dont cry, look at directions brainliest for who does it !:D pls.
Answer:
Warriors Don’t Cry begins when Melba and eight other black men and women in their forties return to their home state of Arkansas to meet the then-governor, Bill Clinton. Melba, the narrator and author, explains that the group, called the Little Rock Nine, is visiting Central High School in Little Rock. As teenagers in 1957, the nine of them were the first African-American students to be integrated into the school.
When Melba is twelve years old, the Supreme Court rules that separate schools for whites are illegal, a ruling called Brown v. the Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas. In the year after the ruling, Melba sees very little change in segregation. She is still at an all-black high school, but she and sixteen other black students sign up to attend the white school. Because of the threat of violence, the number of black students who will participate in the integration is decreased from seventeen to nine. Several times in the few days before school is supposed to start, lawsuits are filed that threaten to stop the nine students. Governor Faubus declares that he is going to send the Arkansas National Guard to the high school, though he does not say whether they are there to protect the nine or to stop them from entering the school. Grandma India begins to stay awake at night with a shotgun near her. Finally, a few days after school has started, federal court judge Ronald Davies orders that the students be allowed to attend.
On September 3, 1957, Melba and her mother drive to Central High School for Melba’s first day of class. A huge white mob has gathered, and the Arkansas National Guard encircles the school. Luckily, both Melba and her mother make it to the car and escape unharmed. Melba is not allowed to leave her house or answer the door or the phone. She tells her grandmother that she wants to go back to Horace Mann, her old high school, but her grandmother insists that Melba is not a quitter.
President Eisenhower and Governor Faubus meet and attempt to resolve the problem of integration in Arkansas, but the meeting is unsuccessful, and on September 20, 1957, the State of Arkansas goes to federal court before Judge Davies. Judge Davies rules that the Arkansas National Guard must be removed and that the Little Rock Nine must be allowed into Central High School. Governor Faubus removes the guard and predicts that blood will run in the streets of Little Rock if the schools are integrated.
On Monday, September 23, 1957, Melba and the other black students go to school. They are again greeted by a mob of angry white people. In the middle of one class, Melba is forced to flee to the principal’s office, as the mob has broken the barricades and is headed for the school. Someone in the principal’s office proposes that they give the crowd one of the children to kill so the others can escape. Gene Smith, the assistant chief of police, smuggles the nine students out of the school. The day after the mob attack, Melba stays home and reads that President Eisenhower has announced he will use force to prevent this kind of mob rule and to enforce federal law. The next day, the 101st Airborne Division (a division of war heroes) arrives in Little Rock.
Each black student has his or her own escort from the 101st Airborne Division. Melba’s solider, Danny, protects her when someone attempts to throw acid in her eyes. In October, Melba, Ernie, and Minnijean meet with some of Central High’s white students under the guidance of a Norwegian reporter, Mrs. Jorumn Rickets, who hopes to foster some sort of understanding between the two groups. The meeting is a failure. Eisenhower withdraws the 101st Airborne, and the nine students are forced to rely on the Arkansas National Guard for protection. The Nine continue to be terrorized: one day, white girls attack Melba in the showers and hold her under scalding water. At the same time, the newspaper that Mrs. Bates (the President of the NAACP in Little Rock) runs is being financially ruined by white businesspeople, and the State Attorney is threatening NAACP officials across the state.

LMK what you think about my in-equality essay ...
Here is a bit of a few pages
Bri.......
that was so amazing.......
u did great!!!
i literally agree with everything stated in that essay!
what u wrote literally hit home with me like nothing has ever done before......
Answer: To start off I am not white
Here's my review, the beginning section feels like an attack on white people. Personally, I can be in a room with a white person and feel comfortable because I do not judge them based on their color but by the content of their character. “I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.” -Martin Luther King. A lot of the language used feels too simple, too repetitious, and I'm not saying use words like "unequivocally," but try to spice up the writing. I agree with a lot of the things that have been typed, such as we are discriminated more against by a whole lot and there's statistics for this and I think you should include some just to hammer the point home. I noticed some parts are phrased weirdly aka "hard to read text."

The North American river otter is found in the United States and Canada. The river otter is a member of the weasel family. It is equally at home in the water as it is on land. An adult river otter can weigh between 10 and 30 pounds. Because the otter spends much of its time in the water, it is protected and insulated by a thick coat of water-repellant fur.
River otters live in underground burrows close to the water's edge. The river otter’s home is called a den. The den has many tunnel openings. One of these openings will lead directly into a river, lake or other body of water. Female otters give birth to their young in these dens.
River otter babies are called pups. A litter of river otter babies usually consists of one to six pups. The pups remain in the den until they are ten to twelve weeks old. At this time, the mother begins to teach them to swim and hunt for food on their own.
River otters prefer to eat fish, but they will also consume various amphibians, turtles, and sometimes, small mammals such as mice. Bobcats, coyotes and foxes may occasionally prey upon young otters, but because river otters spend most of their time underground or in the water, they have few natural predators.
Which detail from the passage tells you that river otters use the water to escape from enemies?
A) It is equally at home in the water as it is on land.
B) The pups remain in the den until they are ten to twelve weeks old.
C) Bobcats, coyotes and foxes may occasionally prey upon young otters...
