The picture that drew me in was the picture of the woman and her little girl on the steps of the Supreme Court following the decision of Brown vs The Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas in 1954. I was drawn to it because I see hope for a future in the mother's face for her child, We all want the best for our children. I want the best for my children. I want them to have an education and to watch them succeed in their lives. To me this photo says many things. It speaks of hope, love, relief, fight, a future and many more. The feeling of the photograph is hope. Hope for education. Hope for equality. Hope for the future. The photo was taken because this is a turning point in humanity and education. This was a BIG deal in the 1950's. It changed the lives of many which trickled down to the future generations. It changed the way people were treated and what education they received. This is a positive thing that happened in our history. The overall message is everyone deserves the right to an education and the right to be treated equal. We are all human. We all deserve to be treated equally.
