Although the African American race was said to be equal to the White Americans and just as free, they were not treated as such. In the state of Florida, it was required that black children and white children's school books were not to be found together, and had to be stored separately. African American children were not permitted to sit on the same side of the classroom as White children, and for a short time, segregation ruled to the point of black children's education ending at the fifth grade.
