Description
Written around the time of the integration of the University of Mississippi by James Meredith and the riots that followed.

A followup to "A Bell Rang," written after Meredith was able to enroll, it discusses negative reaction to the previous piece and the responsibility of editors in publishing editorials. It also argues that the editorial "we" should not be understood to reflect the views of the whole campus.
