expressions in art

  I think this picture can represent Bessie and Sadie fighting the rebby boys.  The men in the picture are fighting them, but the white men are fighting back. It doesn't show what the white men did to cause this but even something little could have caused an outburst.  The rebby boys were constantly doing little things just to show Saadie and Bessie that they didn't belong.  It is cruel and completly unfair.  The men in this picture and Sadie and Bessie all got treated harshly because of their skin color.  They were discriminated and abused.  It is not fair at all.  Sadie and Bessie overcame the rebby boys by proving them wrong and never giving up.  The men in this picture look like they may have successfully killed some of the white men and their owners.
