This is a photo of people picketing in hopes that the public schools would integrate. Not only could this be a way for the teacher to describe one method that people used to try and get their points across during the Civil Rights Movement, but it also gives a little background on the history of the public school system. A teacher could use this as a way to describe how the public schools have changed over time.
