Summary

Description School teachers and pupils in black rural school. This year, despite the fact the white school received free books, none arrived for the blacks. The teacher was so afraid of losing her job that she would not make any inquiries about the books and the children were sharing the few books some could buy. Creek County, Oklahoma.
