Bystander Perspective

Write a story from the perspective of someone who initially resisted the Civil Rights movement but had a change of heart.

This will allow you to delve into the mindset and beliefs of those who did not immediately embrace the movement’s goals. Explore why some people initially resist social change and what experiences or insights might lead them to update their views. This presents an opportunity to explore empathy, personal growth and how perceptions can be altered over time.
