Segregation Now: The Resegregation of America’s Schools White students once accounted for a majority of the Tuscaloosa school district's students. But by the mid-1990s, they made up less than a third. Total enrollment had dropped from 13,500 in 1969 to 10,300 in 1995. Many white parents had decided to send their children to nearly all-white private schools or to move across the city line to access the heavily white Tuscaloosa County Schools. Tuscaloosa's business leaders and elected officials had witnessed the transformation of other southern cities after their school districts had reached a tipping point—the point at which white parents become unsettled by the rising share of black students in a school, and pull their children from the school en masse. Tuscaloosa's residential population stagnated during the '90s, and the school situation took on special urgency in 1993: Tuscaloosa was vying for the Mercedes-Benz plant where Melissa Dent now works, which officials hoped would draw people to the city.

Text 1 The Story of Helen Keller, The Girl Who Could Not See, Hear or Speak I’d like you to know the story of Helen Keller, who could neither see nor hear from the time she was a baby. I must say there was nothing wrong with Helen Keller when she was born. For nineteen months Helen grew bigger and stronger. But one day the child fell ill. The little child was now doomed to a life of silence and darkness. When Helen was 6 years old her parents took her to Baltimore and then to Washington to famous doctors to find out if they could do something to make her hear and see again, but the doctors could do nothing. It was a wonderful day for Helen Keller when Ann Sullivan arrived in March 1887 to take charge of the child who could neither hear nor speak. Ann Sullivan found a way to make herself understood.
