It was the authors visual testimony during this period that minorities (blacks) were not accepted in the main work stream of the American enterprise and segregation blocked the opportunity to do so. A part of this testimony is the lasting experience of being turned down to enroll in the all-white junior college in Texarkana, Texas. The only employment opportunities available were for teachers in all black schools that were rated well below the required state achievement levels. After receiving an MED from Atlanta University, Atlanta, Georgia, additional hours in science teaching from the University of Missouri School of Mines, and a certificate from America Management Association, only marginal benefits for qualifying for better jobs were realized. Forced to teach in schools that were inferior to white schools in the same area did not create a sense of inferiority to the author but developed the need and strong urge to do something to drastically change this realization.
